A5 Western Transport Corridor Scheme - Amendment 2

Leave out all after ‘Minister for Infrastructure’ and insert: ‘failed to take the necessary actions to ensure that the A5 Western Transport Corridor scheme could withstand legal challenge; calls on the Minister for Agriculture, Environment and Rural Affairs to present proposals to the Executive to amend aspirational net zero targets, ensuring major infrastructure projects are not stymied and construction of an agreed A5 scheme begins as soon as possible; further calls on the Minister of Finance to urgently commit to providing fair compensation to affected landowners for loss of income and costs of reinstatement; and calls on the Minister for Infrastructure, notwithstanding the Notice of Appeal against the A5 judgment, to implement fresh road safety measures on the A5 in order to prevent further loss of life.’
