Written answers

Minister of State at the Department of Children, Equality, Disability, Integration and Youth

The National Transport Authority (NTA), under the aegis of the Department of Transport, has statutory responsibility for securing the provision of public passenger transport services nationally. I do not have any role or function in relation to the provision of this service.
