Question:

63 Mr. Barrett asked the Minister for Public Enterprise the steps, if any, taken to ensure that bus and rail public transport services will be available on 31 December 1999; and if agreement has been reached with the CIE group of companies staff to ensure that there will be an adequate public transport service. [25939/99]

Minister for Public Enterprise (Mrs. O'Rourke)

I have no responsibility for the scheduling of bus and rail public transport services, nor for the staffing arrangements of these services. These are day to day matters for CIE and its subsidiary companies.
