488. To ask the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport further to Parliamentary Question Nos. 494 of 29 May 2018 and 485 of 19 June 2018, if he will initiate a grant scheme for the provision of cattle underpasses in view of the fact health and safety for all parties affected is of paramount importance.

The issue of cattle underpasses arises primarily on more heavily trafficked national roads. As Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport, I have responsibility for overall policy and funding in relation to the national roads programme.  The planning, design and operation of individual roads is a matter for Transport Infrastructure Ireland under the Roads Acts 1993-2015 in conjunction with the local authorities concerned. 

Noting the above position, I have referred the Deputy's question to TII for direct reply.  Please advise my private office if you don't receive a reply within 10 working days.
