When the work intensified after last year's budget, my Department contacted all the other Departments to ask them to come back to it with projects that they felt made sense from a policy perspective. In the case of transport, for example, there was a focus on projects that dealt with challenges like road safety or met the Department's preliminary criteria for projects to go to appraisal or to the pre-planning stage. That was done by the Department of Transport, Tourism and Sport.
