Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 10 July 2019
338. Deputy Martin Heydon asked the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport the outcome of reviews of train fares for commuters from Newbridge and Kildare, County Kildare outside the short hop zone; if further reviews are planned; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [30138/19]
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 regulation of fares in relation to public passenger transport services. I have, therefore, 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.
