Amharc ar fhreagraI thank the Deputy for their question.
My Department is responsible for the implementation of 54 specific commitments in the Programme for Government: Our Shared Future, as well as playing a critical role in supporting other commitments.
Government has delivered positive improvements through this implementation, including securing lower public transport fares, expanding public transport services through the roll-out of schemes such as Connecting Ireland and BusConnects, improving Active Travel infrastructure around the country, and continuing to support the transition to Electric Vehicles (EVs) through funding for EV grants and charging infrastructure.
Key updates regarding the main policy achievements since 27 June 2020, as sought by the Deputy, are set out below.
