I propose to take Questions Nos. 296, 298 and 300 together.

As Minister for Transport, I have responsibility for overall policy and exchequer funding in relation to the National Roads Programme. Under the Roads Acts 1993-2015 and in line with the National Development Plan (NDP), the operation and management of individual national roads is a matter for Transport Infrastructure Ireland (TII), in conjunction with the local authorities concerned. This is also subject to the Infrastructure Guidelines and the necessary statutory approvals. In this context, TII is best placed to advise you regarding the projects you have outlined.

Noting the above position, I have referred your question to TII for a direct reply regarding the maintenance costs of these roads. Please advise my private office if you do not receive a reply within 10 working days.
