Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 4 April 2019
301. Deputy Kevin O'Keeffe asked the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport his views on the fact that the National Transport Authority has failed to supply new double decker coaches to Bus Éireann at Capwell, County Cork (details supplied). [15986/19]
View answerAs Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport, I have responsibility for policy and overall funding in relation to public transport. The National Transport Authority (NTA) has statutory responsibility for the planning and development of public transport infrastructure including the provision of national bus fleet.
Noting the NTA's responsibility in the matter, I have referred the Deputy's question to the NTA for a direct reply. I would ask the Deputy to contact my private office if he does receive a reply within 10 days.
