Dessie Ellis (Dublin North West, Sinn Fein)

It has been reported that there will be increases in tolls in the new year. The Minister mentioned previously the tolling of different parts of the M50. Is that idea dead and buried? It would cause huge problems for people throughout the city, while adding huge volumes of traffic to secondary roads. Are there plans to toll the Jack Lynch tunnel? We should also lower the tolls for use of the Dublin Port tunnel to entice more people to use it. It is too expensive and does not make sense for it to be a white elephant. We must do something about this.
