5. Deputy Malcolm Byrne asked the Taoiseach for an update on the programme for Government. [3638/26]

Critical to the delivery of housing, the Government's top priority, is the need to unlock infrastructure that will allow that housing to be provided. I would be grateful for an update on the housing activation fund. In particular, the provision of the northern inner relief road for Gorey will unlock 73 acres of land in St. Waleran's for housing development. Now that the wastewater treatment plant in Arklow has been opened by the Taoiseach, there is provision for the town to grow, but a second bridge over the river is needed in order to allow for expansion. I ask the Taoiseach to treat both of those projects as priorities.
