As Minister for Transport, I have responsibility for policy and overall funding in relation to public transport; however, I am not involved in the day-to-day operations of public transport.
The issue raised by the Deputy concerning the amount that Irish Rail will spend in 2024 on the installation of electric vehicle charging points in car parks at train stations is an operational matter for Iarnród Éireann. I have, therefore, referred the Deputy's request to the company for direct reply. Please advise my private office if you do not receive a reply within ten working days.
A referred reply was forwarded to the Deputy under Standing Order 51
