I thank the Minister for his reply, which was positive. Given his commitment to ensuring the interurban networks get attention throughout the country, as per his statements on the national development plan, I hope the Minister will keep Mallow in mind, and when funding becomes available to progress the schemes beyond the project appraisal, design and progressing through the statutory processes, that funding would become available to ensure the project continues and stays on the political agenda.
