Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 30 March 2022
24. Deputy Róisín Shortall asked the Minister for Transport his plans to improve public transport links for an area (details supplied) on the north side of Dublin; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [16952/22]
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 day-to-day operations of public transport. The National Transport Authority (NTA) has statutory responsibility for securing the provision of public passenger transport services nationally in conjunction with the relevant transport operators.
In light of the Authority's responsibility in this area, I have forwarded the Deputy's specific question in relation to the improvement of public transport links between Finglas and Dublin Airport to the NTA for direct reply. Please advise my private office if you do not receive a response within ten working days.
