The Deputy's example was good in the context of what we should prioritise.

I might return to the issue of the NTA and TII. We have to review their respective roles continually. TII has great skill at delivering projects. As an example, at a recent meeting we discussed the area of active travel and TII might take a stronger role in that, not just in terms of the regional design offices it now has but also through the likes of the greenway programme. An agency such as that, with skill and expertise in the deploying of assets, might well have a role in a project like that.
