Cecilia Keaveney (Fianna Fail)

I will. The Minister of State's comment that the two remaining cross-Border bridges have been reopened is inaccurate. I have mentioned a third road, Coney Road-Canning's Lane, on a number of occasions. The road in question is still closed. If it were opened, it would improve access between the communities of Muff and Culmore, which are on either side of the Border. Perhaps the Minister of State can ask the NRA to give me more details of its plans for link roads from the new A5 at Strabane to Ballybofey, and from the new A5 at Derry to Letterkenny. There is no point in the authorities on either side of the Border investing €500 million in this cross-Border route while ignoring the link roads from towns in the Republic to the new route. To do so would send a great message to the people of Donegal about their importance in the national scene. We have waited long enough for a dual carriageway, at a time when motorways were being built elsewhere. It is vital that the NRA does not abandon us while it talks about financial constraints. We should be the financial priority at this point. I hope the Minister of State can convey that message to the NRA.
