Like my colleagues, I thank the Minister for the additional funding invested in our roads. Any further funding will always be welcome, but we understand there are cuts in this area, like everywhere else. The construction industry scheme, CIS, has worked in my county and that is great. At the same time, we do not like having to ask people for money for roads. This is an issue that will not go away.
With regard to the toll holiday, I am very interested to hear the results of that on the M1 and M3, because it affects Slane. As soon as the updated results of this holiday are available, will the Minister forward them to us?
