Mr. Nigel O'Neill:

Essentially, yes, or the Government. Mr. Walsh mentioned approval gates earlier - the infrastructure guidelines that the Department of Public Expenditure, National Development Plan Delivery and Reform publishes and requires compliance with. Cabinet decisions are required at approval gates 1 and 3.

That is for any project and not just for transport projects. Any project costing more than €200 million requires Cabinet approval. The Government of Ireland is deciding.
