Written answers

Minister for Transport

As Minister for Transport, I have responsibility for policy and overall funding for public transport. The National Transport Authority (NTA) has statutory responsibility for developing an accessible, integrated and sustainable public transport network.

In light of the NTA's responsibilities, including for its own audit of bus stations, I have forwarded your question to the NTA for direct reply to you. Please advise my private office if you do not receive a response within ten working days.
