Written answers

Minister for Transport (Mr. Brennan)

The Public Enterprise (Alteration of Name of Department and Title of Minister) Order 2002, which came into operation on 19 June 2002, altered the name of the Department of Public Enterprise to the Department of Transport. No decentralisation process has taken place in the former Department of Public Enterprise or in the Department of Transport since its establishment in June 2002.
