Shane Moynihan (Dublin Mid West, Fianna Fail)

I would appreciate a follow-up as well. I am not dismissing the important of meeting elected representatives and engineers but those meetings have to have some sort of substantive engagement. We are at a juncture where people perceive that the process is about the meeting but there is not necessarily an outcome from that, or no constructive outcome. That is again a general point I wanted to make.

On the delivery of the roads programme, I live in a constituency that has had massive population growth over the last while and that is why projects like the Luas for Lucan and DART+ South West are so pivotal to the increased growth and facilitating the movement of population. However, there are also bottlenecks. For example, the Palmerston interchange at the N4 is listed in the South Dublin County Council development plan as part of its six-year road programme. Similarly, the delivery of the western Dublin orbital route is listed in the six-year programme of the South Dublin County Council development plan. What engagement does TII have with the local authority to ensure the delivery of those? I ask not only because they are important infrastructural investments in their own right, but because they would also unlock large parts of the constituency for additional housing, they would ensure the congestion we see in places like Rathcoole and Saggart villages is not replicated in five to ten years' time if there is further development. What kind of proactive approach does TII take with regard to the development of those roads programmes?
