I have no function in relation to this matter. The structure of fares is an operational matter for the CIE companies.

Question:

62 Mr. Deasy asked the Minister for Transport if his attention has been drawn to the fact that Waterford is the only city here that does not have a public bus service on Sundays and bank holidays; the discussions he has had with Bus Éireann regarding the provision of a Sunday service in Waterford; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

View answer

The decision to operate public bus services on specific days of the week is an operational matter for bus operators. I understand that in the case of Bus Éireann, they are considering the introduction of such services, in the light of my announcement today on expanding the company's bus fleet.
