Deputy, Public service obligation transport routes are socially necessary transport services that may not be commercially viable and as such require a state subsidy to operate. The budget allocated to public service obligation transport routes across Ireland in 2021 was €680.9m. This comprised €673.5m for land transport services and €7.4m for aviation services. Not all the funding allocated was required last year.
