Rail services and Dunleer station

Summary

Senator McGreehan welcomed rail investment, called for reopening Dunleer station, and sought an update on the all-Ireland rail review.

I welcome the announcement yesterday that the DART will be extended to Drogheda, County Louth. I commend the previous decision by the shared island unit to fund additional cross-Border Enterprise train services from Belfast to Dundalk. It is now time, with all that investment in our rail system along the east coast, to look properly at the reopening of Dunleer train station. I also request a debate in the House on the all-Ireland rail review and an update from the Minister on progress, actions taken and the short- and medium-term goals we are all looking forward to seeing in this House.
