Transport Minister Noel Dempsey has said he is confident the National Roads Authority is doing all in its power to resolve issues with equipment in the Dublin Port Tunnel.

The Minister was responding to Fine Gael's Fergus O'Dowd, who said equipment failures in the tunnel were unacceptable and were damaging public confidence in the tunnel.

Problems with the tunnel's fans were revealed on RTÉ's Prime Time programme.

Mr Dempsey agreed it was unacceptable, but said it was a matter between the contractor and the NRA, which was taking legal action to ensure the equipment was properly repaired.

He said he was confident the NRA was doing all in its power to do this.

Seems the Minister wants to blame someone else, when it was his government that chose the cheapest tenders. You buy cheap and you will get crap.
Thanks to the Minister for wasting my money on another white elephant.
