Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 10 July 2018
789. Deputy Michael Healy-Rae asked the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport the documentation being checked by the NTA from northern operators, particularly for occasional licences at concert venues and sporting events at which operators state they are being hired privately; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [30054/18]
View answerThe regulation of the large public service vehicle industry, including the licensing of bus passenger services, is a matter for the National Transport Authority (NTA) under the provisions of the Public Transport Act 2009. Information regarding convictions would be a matter however for my colleague, the Minister for Justice and Equality.
I have referred your question to the NTA for direct reply to you regarding the licensing of bus passenger services. Please advise my private office if you do not receive a response within 10 working days.
