I refer the Deputy to my answer to Dáil question no. 284 on 24 November 2009. The table, containing the start and end location points, was contained in the application for Ten-T funding for the DART Underground project.

Issues relating to the commencement and completion dates of Transport 21 projects in planning, including matters relating to the start and end location points of the DART Underground, will in be determined by the outcome of public consultation, the statutory planning approval process, the public procurement process and the availability of financial resources determined by the funding allocation available during the current difficult economic climate.
