As Minister for Transport I have responsibility for overall policy and funding in relation to the national roads programme element of Transport 21. The implementation of individual national road projects and the allocation of funding in relation to the construction or maintenance of national roads are matters for the National Roads Authority under the Roads Act, 1993 in conjunction with the relevant local authorities concerned.
