I am sorry to have to bring this to the floor but 12 months ago, Transport Infrastructure Ireland, TII, and some stakeholders including the National Road Authority, NRA, Wexford County Council, and the Irish Road Haulage Association, IRHA, had a meeting on traffic management in Rosslare particularly at this time of year when boats will unfortunately be disrupted due to adverse weather conditions. No progress has been made despite the fact that TII and the Department of Transport have sent emails to say that they would provide 20 car park spaces for HGV vehicles within the customs facility.

The Taoiseach was there himself. It is an expansive facility. It holds 53 trucks. It is used to the tune of four trucks at any one time. The traffic to the UK has reduced substantially and is now around 20% of Rosslare's traffic over the direct ferry. We need road safety. Kilrane National School has 350 children partaking in the road safety programme. Will the Taoiseach please intervene?
