The Expenditure Review on CIÉ subvention was published at the end of November after examination by my Department. The purpose of the review was to evaluate the efficiency and effectiveness of the subvention paid to CIÉ over the period 2001-2005. The report also contains a number of measures to be taken up with the CIE companies to strengthen the management of public expenditure and deliver better value for money for the future and this is now being done.

My Department is currently engaged in a procurement process for the engagement of consultants to conduct a review of the Railway Safety Programme 2004-2008. The target date for the completion of the review is before the end of the current programme — end 2008. I cannot say at this point what will be the outcome of the review.
