Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 5 February 2026
170. Deputy Ruairí Ó Murchú asked the Minister for Transport the reason active travel funding has been cut to Louth County Council in the latest funding allocation; the extent that council officials have told elected representatives that some planned schemes will not go ahead or be delayed; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

Amharc ar fhreagraAs Minister for Transport, I have responsibility for policy and overall funding in relation to Active Travel. Funding is administered through the National Transport Authority (NTA), who have responsibility for the allocation of funding to local authorities and oversight of the development and delivery of specific projects in each local authority area.
Noting the role of the NTA in the matter, I have referred your questions to that agency for a more detailed answer. If you do not receive a reply within 10 working days, please contact my private office.
