Committee on Budgetary Oversight: Review of the Capital Plan: Transport Infrastructure Ireland (22 Mar 2017)

Dara Calleary: Page 19, point 5.12. "Turning to gateways and hubs, a very similar story emerges. Most gateways and hubs have enjoyed significant increases in employment accessibility." That refers to the last major investment in roads and road upgrades. "Ballina, Castlebar and Sligo experienced negligible improvements." However, I see nothing in any of the documents here that deals with the N26 or the...

Committee on Budgetary Oversight: Review of the Capital Plan: Transport Infrastructure Ireland (22 Mar 2017)

Dara Calleary: It is the equivalent of the M50 for me.

Committee on Budgetary Oversight: Review of the Capital Plan: Transport Infrastructure Ireland (22 Mar 2017)

Dara Calleary: Is there an understanding within the Department of Transport of how serious PPPs are? If we are going to be €400 million short in respect of pavement renewals by 2020 the Department must realise that the inability to access PPPs is strangling TII's ability to do its job, before it even gets to the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform.

Money Advice and Budgeting Service and Citizens Information Centres: Motion (28 Mar 2017)

Dara Calleary: The Minister is leaving the Chamber but I listened to his remarks carefully. My only diagnosis is that he does not get it. He does not get the nature of the MABS or the Citizens Information service, CIS. MABS started in The Lough in Cork, a small urban community. The CIS owes its roots to Muintir na Tíre in Tipperary, a rural community and Deputy Jackie Cahill's county. Both...
