View answerAs 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 National Transport Authority (NTA) has statutory responsibility for securing the provision of public passenger transport services nationally. In addition I would like to advise that the NTA also has responsibility for the collection and publication of statistics relating to public transport in conjunction with the relevant transport operators.
Therefore, in light of the NTA's responsibility in this area, I have forwarded the Deputy's question in relation to Dublin Bus route 4, to the NTA for direct reply. Please advise my private office if you do not receive a response within ten working days.
