Bertie Ahern (Dublin Central, Fianna Fail)

Over €1.2 billion has been invested in rail transport. The logical position is to build the line to Navan. The first stage is the Clonsilla to Dunboyne line. The studies have been done and completed, the Government is supportive of it and we want to get on with it. Some €31 billion has been allocated to the transport programme until 2009.
