Rail Services and Related Transport Matters: Statements.

 

The Minister should bring in CIE, as he may have done already, and hammer out a structure for the proper marketing of rail freight services. If the Minister and the Government have the will to expand those services, it is half the battle, but we need action rather than words. Plans and reports are a dime a dozen and there is no doubt that if the railway line in the south east is closed it will be an attack on the social and economic infrastructure of the region. It would have a detrimental effect on the ports of both Waterford and Rosslare.
