Yesterday I visited one of my local secondary schools, the Good Counsel College, New Ross, where a young man called Adam asked me about the rail review and where that currently stood. He wanted to know will a future Ireland for him consist of a high-speed rail network connecting Ireland's major cities.

It must also be noted that while we await the review, there are significant projects in Wexford that have been completely shelved, namely the proposed greenway that would connect Rosslare to Waterford on the current out-of-service rail corridor, which would potentially be transformative for tourism and flagship villages in County Wexford. The Minister, Deputy Eamon Ryan, launched a pathfinder programme of 35 transport projects to be delivered within the next three years with zero mention of Wexford. Will the Taoiseach clarify today what is the further timeframe on the publication of the rail review?
