asked the Minister for Local Government whether his attention has been drawn to the recent statement by the Manager of the Dublin city bus services that the necessity for the relief of road congestion made a strong case for the granting of traffic privileges for buses such as preferential treatment at intersections and bus freeways; and whether it is proposed to grant any extension of traffic privileges for buses.
