​As Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport, I have responsibility for overall policy and funding in relation to the national roads programme. The implementation and management of individual national road projects, including the Dublin Port Tunnel, is a matter for the National Roads Authority (NRA) under the Roads Acts 1993-2007, in conjunction with the relevant local authorities concerned.  

Noting the above position, I have referred the Deputy's question to the NRA for direct response. Please advise my private office if you do not receive a response within ten working days.
