I thank the Deputy for his question.

The Minister, Deputy Eamon Ryan, is looking at how we can provide public transport connectivity through rail to more parts of our country, including where the Deputy referred to, through the strategic rail review that is now under way. That will have to be considered by the Government in the future. There are many other different public transport projects that the Minister, Deputy Ryan, and the Government wish to make progress on. These competing and important needs will need to be considered during this year. It will be through the strategic rail review that options for delivering rail connectivity to the Deputy's county will be identified.
