Phil Hogan (Carlow-Kilkenny, Fine Gael)

I thank the Minister for his response. Will he indicate how much money he expects to raise through the carbon levy? Has an estimate been generated by his Department for the Department of Finance's budgetary calculations? Second, there has been a shift in emphasis from roads to public transport in the programme for Government. I understand that 94 road projects will be deferred and that the money will be put into public transport. The Minister should provide some details in this regard.
