New Transport Minister - DART Interconnector

[Jack Funk]

I see that Leo Varadkar is new Minister for Transport, Just wondering how much of an impact will this guy have? He's young fresh, maybe new ideas?
Will he take on the unions overvalued drivers and underused Permanent way staff?
Will the DART interconnector---so badly needed-- go ahead under his watch or will we have more Western Rail Corridors going unused--- see another Thread on the forum about that!
There already is a load of hassle at the public consultation meetings irate public giving out about noise from North Wall yards because of works down there( didn't think anything had started? Mobilisation works?/ ground clearing what?)
He's got a lot on his plate!
