Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 4 November 2021
136. Deputy Pádraig O'Sullivan asked the Minister for Transport if consideration will be given to an extension of a bus route to Carriganvar, Whitechurch and Grenagh, County Cork; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [53206/21]
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 including decisions regarding amendments to bus routes 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.
