There is a lot of sensitivity concerning the next question I am going to ask Mr. Walsh, but I must ask it. Has Mr. Walsh been contacted by the Department of Transport on the items I raised in the meetings I had with the Taoiseach, the Minister for Public Expenditure and Reform and the Minister for Transport? Following what happened after my intervention on the national development plan, were they subsequently in contact with Mr. Walsh? I understand that the funding allocations for next year will be decided later in the year, but has there been contact with him following on from that meeting?
