Mr. Peter Walsh:

The classification of the roads is a matter for the Department. I cannot think of a road that we have taken over, other than the fact that any time we build a road it becomes a national road. Often, by default, the road that is being bypassed ceases to be a national road. We have had a couple of cases recently where they have remained national roads. Other than that, I cannot think of a circumstance where we have changed the classification of a road to a national road in recent times.
