The Minister, Deputy McGrath, will have to decide on the timing of the national development plan, NDP. I cannot shoehorn it in. I am nervous of the implication that the national investment framework for transport in Ireland, NIFTI, provides a computerised perfect solution where x, y or z project should be "Yes" or "No" and it comes out as definitive. It does not. It is part of an ongoing process of accessing how to deliver on the national planning framework. It will not just stop at the review of the NDP. An ongoing assessment will continue.
