Deputy John Deasy asked the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport the amount of funding County Waterford operators has received from his Department under the rural transport programme in each of the past seven years.

Reply from Minister of State Alan Kelly: As Minister of State for Public and Commuter Transport I have responsibility for policy and overall funding in relation to the Rural Transport Programme (RTP).  The RTP including allocation of funding was managed on behalf of the Department by Pobal until 31st March 2012.  Following the Government Decision of 26th January 2012 in relation to integrated local and rural transport, responsibility for the management of the RTP was assigned to the National Transport Authority (NTA) with effect from 1st April 2012. The Programme is currently managed by Pobal in conjunction with the NTA as part of the Programme transition.

Noting this I have referred the Deputy's question to the NTA/Pobal for direct reply.  Please advise my private office if you do not receive a reply within 10 working days.

Deputy John Deasy asked the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport the total amount of grant aid his Department has historically allocated for works, including construction and land acquisition costs, specifically relating to the Waterford Airport Road, which is designated as a strategic non-national route.

Reply from by Minister Leo Varadkar: The improvement and maintenance of regional and local roads in its area, is a statutory function of each road authority in accordance with the provisions of section 13 of the Roads Act, 1993.  Works on such roads are a matter, for the relevant local authority to be funded from its own resources supplemented by State road grants. The initial selection and prioritisation of works to be funded is also a matter for the local authority.
 
Waterford County Council was provided with a total of €11,085,091 towards the R708 Airport Road between 2003 and 2009.
