Motor Vehicle (Duties and Licences) Bill 2003: Second Stage (Resumed).

 

According to my information, CIE is projecting that it could be next May before this matter is sorted out. I cannot understand how bureaucracy and legal implications can cause such a delay. The project was completed seven months ago, yet members of the local community are asking what has happened to the access road. They cannot understand the delay in opening it. I do not expect the Minister of State to do much on the basis of what I said, apart from agreeing with me about the future implications for industry of target emission levels but he should try to bang heads together to see if the access road can be opened. As a native of Foynes, I would be only too delighted to carry out the official opening.
