Mr. Graham Doyle:

The spend on rail is a very significant element of our overall public transport spend. In an overall sense, between PSOs and capital investment in rail, it takes up approximately 60% of expenditure on public transport. The electrification of services can be very beneficial as one can run more train paths and it is a nicer and, quite often, better service for people to access. We talked earlier about the DART underground project, but for that to work it is not just the tunnel itself, it is the wider electrification and that is what brings the benefits. What we are trying to pursue in terms of priorities around electrification includes starting the works in Balbriggan under the spend in the capital plan.
