Catherine Murphy: On JobPath, Deputies are relating the experiences not of people who are influenced by what happened in the United Kingdom, but the practical experience of people who have contacted us. I am getting exactly the same kind of feedback as other Deputies are. I have discussed the matter with Mr. McKeon previously at meetings of the Committee of Public Accounts with regard to people having to...

Ceisteanna - Questions - Ceisteanna ar Sonraíodh Uain Dóibh - Priority Questions: Light Rail Projects (12 Nov 2020)

Catherine Murphy: The strategic housing development at Woodbrook in Shankill will suck up some of the increased capacity. I understand the intention is to increase capacity but not frequency.

Indeed, they are not just along that line; they are along the Kildare line as well. For example, the combined population of Naas, Newbridge, Sallins and other towns is in excess of 60,000, which puts...

Ceisteanna - Questions - Ceisteanna ar Sonraíodh Uain Dóibh - Priority Questions: Light Rail Projects (12 Nov 2020)

Catherine Murphy: I will provide an example. Kilcock is not as far from the city centre as Balbriggan, and there can be a mindset in relation to counties and geography. The population there is growing. The turning circle is 450 m away from that town, and it would seem obvious that the doubling of the line there is going to be a prerequisite to ultimately delivering the electrification project. There is...
