Mr. Michael Nolan:

We will try to get those schemes tender ready and if things change we can react and move with them. The N5 Scramoge to Ballaghaderreen job is 33 km and will cost €200 million. It is an abysmal piece of road. The paving is good but it is very twisty. If one gets behind a slow moving vehicle it is a tortuous journey.

I take on board the Chairman’s comment about parliamentary questions.
