Mr. Garret Doocey:

I will start, if that is okay, and then we will have both Mr. Creegan and Mr. Walsh as well from the agency level. Regarding what is going on with the NDP, at a departmental level, bilateral engagements both at official and ministerial level have kicked off most recently. Submissions have gone in from Departments, including from our Department. Our submission would have been informed by our own engagement with our agencies and with local authorities on the regional and local road side in terms of the requirements over the next five to ten years. That would form part of our initial submission into the Department of Public Expenditure, Infrastructure, Public Service Reform and Digitalisation and then there is ongoing engagement with that. There is then a public consultation which is run by the Department of public expenditure itself and it is open to people to make submissions, whether that is citizens directly or organisations, State or otherwise.
