Joint Oireachtas Committee on Climate Action
Decarbonising Transport: Discussion (Resumed)
Ms Anne Graham:
Obviously, we are growing as an organisation. We are very thankful that the Government has recognised that we required and require additional resources in order to be able to deliver on the ambitious programme of works that we have. We have been successful in getting additional posts both last year and this year and we continue to look towards other agencies to assist us in delivery of projects such that we are not just reliant on ourselves as a delivery agency, but also on local authorities. As was referenced earlier, the Government has approved significant resources for local authorities to deliver on the very ambitious programme for walking, cycling and active travel. In the context of the response of the Government to the request for additional resources, we have been very successful in getting that approval.
