Mr. Michael Nolan:

We are working within a statutory remit for a safe and efficient national road network. That is one side. There are many incidents on those routes into Dublin. Anybody who travels along the M4 can see 20 to 30 breaks in the median. People are coming into queues and are rear ending. There are also bottlenecks in the system. It is inefficient and unsafe. I understand that the lack of investment in public transport over many years is having an impact on what we do. However, I am still charged with the statutory remit of a safe and efficient national road network. I cannot get away from that. That is what I am doing and what I am leading.
