The metro is an important project although I would prefer a public transport system for Dublin that puts an emphasis on Luas rather than metro. I would like to see the metro supporting Luas rather than the other way around. If, for any reason, the Government decides it cannot currently afford the metro, there is the alternative of the fixed rail over-ground link to Dublin Airport but whatever is decided, there should be a rail link, be it metro or overhead line, to the airport by 2007. I urge the Minister to stick to that proposal.
