Written answers

I am informed by the Garda authorities that 'Operation Open City' replaced 'Operation Freeflow' last year and will commence in the Garda Dublin Metropolitan Region on 8 December, 2013. The operation is expected to continue until 24 December, 2013. I am further informed that the objective of the operation is to facilitate the effective movement of public transport throughout the region and to minimise disruption to the general public through targeted, high visibility measures and Garda enforcement activity.
