The Railway Procurement Agency was set up under the Transport (Railway Infrastructure ) Act 2001 which was enacted by the Oireachtas in 2001. The rationale for the establishment of the agency was set out in my predecessor's Second Stage speech to Dáil Éireann in 2001, which can be found in Vol. 542 of the Parliamentary Debates of 18 October 2001. I will arrange to have a copy sent to the Deputy.
