Written answers

Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport

Responsibility for the development of public transport infrastructure in the Greater Dublin Area, including rail infrastructure, is a function of the National Transport Authority (NTA).

Therefore, 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 10 working days.
