Mr. Mark Foley:

We are awaiting an adjudication from the Supreme Court which we hope will come through before Christmas or early in the new year. Hopefully, that will bring an end to the judicial process in respect of this vitally-needed project. It is one of the most important pieces of infrastructure of the next decade. In Northern Ireland, the project is somewhat ensnared in the question of civil servants having the capacity to approve or consent to major projects.
