Marc MacSharry (Fianna Fail)

Further to Senator Feighan's points relating to the Sligo-Dublin rail line, I am supportive of the points he made. However, I would not feel it necessary to call in the Minister if we requested the Leader to ask the Minister to instruct Iarnród Éireann to put some of the 80 carriages which have been bought, which are bound for the Cork line, on to the Sligo-Dublin line rather than maintaining the 40 year old stock currently in use.
