Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 6 July 2021
138. Deputy Cian O'Callaghan asked the Minister for Transport the steps he is taking to increase public transport options for those who work after midnight; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [35891/21]
View answerAs Minister for Transport, I have responsibility for policy and overall funding in relation to public transport. However, I am not involved in the operations of public transport.
The National Transport Authority (NTA) has statutory responsibility for securing the provision of public passenger transport services nationally and for the scheduling of these services in conjunction with the relevant transport operators. I have, therefore, forwarded the Deputy's question to the NTA for direct reply. Please advise my private office if you do not receive a response within ten working days.
