Dáil Éireann Debate, Monday - 9 September 2024
301. Deputy Thomas Gould asked the Minister for Transport the amount spent by Bus Éireann on private coach hire to fulfil obligations under direct award contracts in Cork city and county in each of the past 12 months respectively, in tabular form. [35697/24]
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 query raised by the Deputy is an operational matter for Bus Éireann. I have, therefore, referred the Deputy's question to the company for direct reply. Please advise my private office if you do not receive a reply within ten working days.
