Tommy Broughan (Dublin North East, Labour)

Given the concerns expressed at hearings of the joint committee, does the Minister think it is time to conduct an independent review of safety in the port tunnel, particularly as there were a number of closures in the early days? Why did the NRA not include the port tunnel in the EuroTAP safety review under the 2004 directive? What was the total cost of the port tunnel? Have all the legal issues relating to the Nishimatsu Mowlem Irishenco consortium been concluded? Will someone else come along looking for more money in connection with the tunnel?
