There are currently 2 major national transport projects and 8 regional transport projects delayed due to judicial reviews. The Department of Transport designs and approves projects in line with best practice and legal requirements. Judicial reviews are an independent legal process. Developing and implementing policy concerning judicial reviews is a matter for the Department of Justice, Home Affairs and Migration.
