I would make two points. The Deputy is correct. The Limerick road is a good example of where there are various conditions in the contract whereby, for example, if another bridge was built across the River Shannon, the contractor would have to be compensated That is an example of a contract with compensation measures. Regarding the toll system and revenues for those projects, the revenue accrues directly to TII. While the Department would have an oversight of the overall budget, we do not have the underspend to date in our Estimates information. I presume because of lower transport numbers due to Covid, there will be a loss of certain revenue but the traffic volumes are pretty much back to the pre-Covid level.
