That is why we have been seeking a review of the TEN-T network. The programme for Government committed to seeking such a review long before Brexit. However, in the light of the imminency of Brexit, it is more crucial than ever that the TEN-T network designation be reviewed. It is regrettable that no formal application for a review has been made, although I acknowledge the matter has been raised informally. Perhaps the Minister might inform us of when it is intended to make a formal application to accelerate the review of the TEN-T network. As Deputy Fitzmaurice stated, such a review would enable other ports and airports to be designated as part of the core network.
