Would the Minister not agree that there are many national roads which are regarded as national secondary routes at present which seriously need upgrading to national primary routes because of the volume of traffic on them, especially goods vehicles and trucks? As the Ceann Comhairle is aware, I have raised the question of one specific road in my constituency which would conform to that criteria. Perhaps the Minister could define what criteria are used in upgrading a national secondary route to a national primary route?

We are having an extension of the question.

The Deputy will be aware that all national secondary roads are national primary routes. If he has a particular road in mind to which he would like to give particular attention I would be happy, if he sends me a note about it, to examine it for him.
