Jackie Cahill (Tipperary, Fianna Fail) | Oireachtas source

I raise the issue of funding for the N24. After intense lobbying last year, we secured agreement from the Department of Transport that €3.25 million would be advanced in 2023 to progress this route. We are now told that the allocation is only going to be €1 million, meaning the planning process for the bypass of Tipperary town, which is urgently needed, will be delayed by another year. I ask the Tánaiste to use his influence with the Department of Transport and to have the originally agreed sum of €3.25 million honoured to progress the planning process for this route.
