Enda Kenny (Mayo, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

I referred earlier to the valuation Bill, the heads of which are being pursued and which will go for pre-legislative scrutiny shortly. Obviously, we need a programme for investment. There is a €40 billion programme which runs to the mid 2020s. The difficulties about public private partnerships have been ironed out and a new office of the European Investment Bank has opened in Dublin. Obviously, a major capital review will be carried out in the middle of the year. I am aware of the Collooney-Castlebaldwin difficulty which has existed for a very long time. It is part of the programme for improvement along with many other road sections. We need a serious capital investment at many locations nationally. A review of the programme will be under way very shortly and carried out in June this year.
