Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport

Toll Increases and Ongoing Projects: Discussion with Transport Infrastructure Ireland

Mr. Peter Walsh:

The city council gets revenue from it. I do not know enough about the project to know whether it had to make some expenditure recently for which those tolls are paying. I do not know. We have provided some detail on the M3. I did not mean to swamp people with paper. What we wanted to do was to provide enough information so that, for any given toll scheme, members would be able to see when it started, when it will finish, what the payments are for and how long they will run for. To clarify again, we are not talking about profit sharing but about revenue sharing. Whether these companies make a profit or not, we still get a share of the revenue.
