It is important that TII fulfils the programme for Government commitment and the aims of the national development plan in the development and completion of that project. That is the case for a number of reasons.

The TII's record on road safety is very good. Mr. Llewellyn spoke about a parliamentary committee meeting in his opening remarks. People did not notice how they arrived safely at that meeting. That is the case when people arrive at other people's houses. The M20, the Cork-Limerick motorway, has become a source of many accidents. There have, tragically, been deaths on the road as a consequence of the camber of the road being poor and the road design being less than adequate for a modern traffic network and connectivity. I hope Mr. Llewellyn will prioritise that.

In the context of road safety, how does Mr. Llewellyn see the TII working with the Road Safety Authority in promoting and ensuring we have safety on our roads?
