In reply to the Hon. J.A. DARLEY (20 February 2020).

The Hon. D.W. RIDGWAY (Minister for Trade and Investment): The Minister for Transport, Infrastructure and Local Government has advised the following:

There are no outstanding payments whereby claims are undisputed and all required approvals and documents are received.

The Department of Planning, Transport and Infrastructure (DPTI) ensures to expedite payments once agreement is reached, and all necessary documents are executed and approvals obtained. At times there could be delays which are outside of DPTI's control, including having funds released from the court or banks providing consent and final mortgage payout amounts.
