The National Development Plan 2018-2027 provides that the potential use of Private Public Partnerships for large scale infrastructure investment should continue to be assessed, where appropriate.

Within the capital budget available to it, Transport Infrastructure Ireland (TII) is responsible (in accordance with the Roads Acts 1993-2015) for the planning, design, and construction of all national roads developments, in conjunction with the local authorities concerned.

Noting the above position, I have, therefore, referred the question to TII for a direct reply to you. Please advise my private office if you do not receive a reply within 10 working days.
