I move to TII's engagement with local authorities. South Dublin County Council is the authority with which I engage. It is a small instance but it shows where we need to maybe improve the level of transparency of how TII engages with local authorities. I am referring to the closure of the Boot Road junction onto the N7. This area has been an accident black spot. The council tells me it has approached TII, has not recommended the closure of this junction and actually recommended junction improvements and improved signage. TII has not engaged with that. How does it engage with councils given the local expertise these have, through their engineers, in movement and traffic patterns?
