Roads responsibility legislation

Summary

James Bannon asked when responsibility for certain local-authority roads would transfer to the National Roads Authority; the Taoiseach said the Bill was due later in the year.

Good communications and transport links are key to delivering regional jobs and the development of our economy which is very important.

Very important.

It is important we have growth in rural areas as well as in urban areas. When can we expect the roads (amendment) Bill to provide for the transfer to the National Roads Authority of responsibility for certain roads which are currently under the remit of local authorities?

Deputy Bannon speaks like a man who is about to get some good news in respect of roads. The Bill is due later in the year.
