Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 19 January 2022
216. Deputy Róisín Shortall asked the Minister for Transport if he is giving consideration to the position for persons with particular needs who bring their dog with them on the bus (details supplied); and if he will make a statement on the matter. [63390/21]
View answerAs Minister for Transport, I have responsibility for policy and overall funding for public transport, whereas it is the National Transport Authority (NTA) that has statutory responsibility for promoting the development of an integrated, accessible public transport network.
As it would seem that the issue raised comes under the remit of the NTA, I have forwarded your question to the NTA for a direct reply to you. Please advise my private office if you do not receive a response within ten working days.
