Just to move on but to stay on the issue of rail, the east coast railway infrastructure protection scheme is a project which is impacting on my county as there are 65 km of coastline between Dublin and north Wexford. I know the expected timeframe for commencement of this is not until 2029. How involved is the Department and what role does it have in this critical piece of work?
