Vol. 179 No. 2

Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Service Frequencies of Córas Iompair Éireann.

46.

asked the Minister for Transport and Power whether in view of the serious restrictions in Córas Iompair Éireann service frequencies introduced and threatened and in view of the essentially public utility nature of the public transport service, he is prepared to introduce amending legislation in order to remove the onus on the Company to make itself pay its own way by 1964, as this factor appears to be responsible for the cuts introduced and proposed.

I am not aware of any serious restrictions in C.I.E. service frequencies and it is not my intention to introduce amending legislation for the purpose suggested.
