I received the Inspector's report of the public inquiry in relation to the Railway Order for the Kildare Route Project on Friday 5 May 2006. I am now obliged, under Section 43 (1) of the Transport (Railway Infrastructure) Act 2001, to consider the report of the Inquiry as well as the submissions I received in respect of the project, CIÉ's application for a Railway Order, and the draft Order and documents that accompanied the application.

I am currently considering the inspector's report and the other documents mentioned above. I will make my decision as to whether to grant the Railway Order when I have given all these documents due and proper consideration.
