Leo Varadkar (Dublin West, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

I hear what the Deputy is saying and I understand the case he is making on behalf of his constituents. Just before this, the Minister, Deputy Eamon Ryan, was here for transport questions. Unfortunately, he is not here now so I cannot refer this to him, but Deputy Griffin and I will speak to him later in the day and make contact with TII and see if it is possible. There may be very good reasons as to why they cannot defer the works, but I do not know that as I am not across the project and I am not a tunnel or road engineer. I appreciate the fact that the Deputy has used his slot here to raise this issue. Therefore, it must be very important to him and his constituents. We will endeavour to make contact with the Minister for Transport to see if his suggestion can be followed.
