In respect of public bus services in County Meath, there are significant concerns about services 109, 109a, 103, 105, 105X. Is there any update on the NTA's engagements with service providers in Meath, largely Bus Éireann, regarding challenges with drivers and mechanics? I know there are long-term issues with congestion but they require a longer term fix. On active travel projects, it seems to be the case, if Meath is anything to go by, that there is no funding for the initial projects that were planned. Is it the case that there are cost overruns? Is there a review of those projects that have been delivered? There are design issues with some of the local projects, for example, with buses and lorries meeting on narrow roads. On the review of the national development plan, has the NTA asked for increased investment? I am referring in that regard to the Navan rail project.
