Written answers

Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport

The functions of the National Transport Authority (NTA) in relation to public transport infrastructure include securing or providing bus stops, bus shelters, bus stations, stands and bus fleets in the State.

Noting this I have referred the Deputy's question to the NTA for direct reply.

Please advise my private office if you do not receive a reply within ten working days.
