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

 

In the context of the Bill, it is important that there is an understanding of where the non-national roads programme stands in 2003. I wish to highlight some key points which should be of interest to a number of Members. In 2003, non-national road allocations will amount to just short of €434 million. That represents €4,346 for every kilometre of non-national road in every county. The 2003 programme includes measures for appropriate road markings on 11,000 kilometres of regional road network and a new regional road signposting programme, both of which are issues to which Senators referred. That provision is part of the programme for Government.
