James Bannon (Longford-Westmeath, Fine Gael)

The Minister said he is not in a position to give a timetable for the delivery of the project. He promised the delivery of it in the run up to the general election in 2007. People will be very disappointed with his negative response. I am disappointed with it. I have to go back and tell my constituents that the Minister will not deliver on this project on time.
