The Minister tells us with certainty that there will be investment in rail services. Again, the Leader, as Minister, told us there would be a feasibility plan for the Cork commuter route and that the Galway route would be examined. She also said that the Maynooth route would be expanded, which has only just happened, and that the Kildare route would be expanded, something we are still only talking about. Likewise, we are still considering the provision of rail services to Navan. The 2000 commitment to increase the number of carriages on DART trains to eight has only just been fulfilled.
