Minister for Transport

I propose to take Questions Nos. 191 and 192 together.

Cork County Council is the statutory planning and road authority for its area of responsibility. It is, therefore, a matter for Cork County Council to consider options to alleviate traffic congestion in Clonakilty town and Kinsale town, taking into account the funding available to it from local and State sources as well as its particular priorities.

Question No. 192 answered with Question No. 191.
