Martin Cullen (Waterford, Fianna Fail)

It is ready but I am waiting for final consultations. We continue to meet all the timelines for the delivery of all the different projects for Dublin under Transport 21. I have consistently said that in the medium and long-term development of all transport in Dublin, including public transport, a body such as the Dublin transport authority is very important, but I want to make sure it is set up correctly. The chairman designate is considering the management, organisational structure, human resources needs and financial requirements of the proposed authority and is engaged with all the key stakeholders, which is very important.

We are making good progress on the delivery of transport services in Dublin and the Dublin transport authority will complement the process by playing a leading role.
