Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport

Revised National Development Plan: Discussion

Mr. Peter Walsh:

We are keen to utilise the funding in the best possible way. To that extent, it may well be that some projects may be suspended for a number of years. We are not going to encourage local authorities to enter into something that we cannot fund. When one gets to the stage of development of a project where one needs to do ground investigations, topographical surveys and environmental surveys then they are expensive. The funding available will be utilised first on the projects and according to the priorities that I gave in my opening statement. I cannot say more than that.
