Funding applications under the Ten-T 2012 Calls are required to be for either Works or Studies. In relation to transport, proposals for both Studies and Works pertaining to railway infrastructure were submitted by my Department. In addition, proposals were also submitted directly by Dublin, Cork and Shannon Foynes port companies, which I was happy to endorse. These proposals are presently being independently evaluated by the Ten-T Executive Agency in Brussels and it is anticipated that the TEN-T Executive Agency will publish their final decisions later this year.
