Mr. Kenneth Spratt:

I mentioned roads when I tried to emphasise that most current development was road-led development. I said sustainable mobility-led development as well as road-led development would be needed. Roads will be a hugely important part of our transport infrastructure forevermore.

As I said, we have approximately 160 projects at various stages across our agencies. Each of those projects has to go through a cost benefit analysis. That has always been the case and will continue to be so when it comes to the public spending code.

I will come back to the Chairman on the submission of our material to the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform-----
