Kevin O'Keeffe: Following on from the comments of my colleague, Deputy Munster, and for the record as well as the people watching these proceedings, the Minister, Deputy Ross, only got two hours' notification on the Topical Issue matter to which he is responding and he was able to turn up. On today's overall topic, I came in hoping for a damage limitation exercise. I welcome the proposal but, from what I...

- Select Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Estimates for Public Services 2019
Vote 31 - Transport, Tourism and Sport (Revised) (6 Mar 2019) Kevin O'Keeffe: I wish to return to the metro design. When the consultants were appointed to design the metro, were they given a straight line and told to come up with a design or were they given terms of reference, such as minimising disruption to existing traffic? Surely before consultants were appointed, someone in the NTA must have proposed putting in place a new metro service but that it would be done...

There was an expectation that the sports capital grants would be awarded annually. When does the Minister see it...

Vote 31 - Transport, Tourism and Sport (Revised) (6 Mar 2019) Kevin O'Keeffe: I do not want to be in any way critical of the manner of distribution of the money. I am very happy with the way it is done. However, if we broadened the number of people, clubs and organisations that can apply for the sports capitation grant, it would broaden the base, for example, if applications could come through schools and the like. The applications opened in 2018 and there was a...

Vote 31 - Transport, Tourism and Sport (Revised) (6 Mar 2019) Kevin O'Keeffe: We welcome the increase in funding for tourism. Towards what area is the Minister directing this extra funding? There is concern about a no-deal Brexit or even an orderly Brexit and where we are going to pull the tourists from in that context. How is it intended to use the extra funding? The tourism sector is to get €35 million, a 26% increase in funding, which is substantial....
