42 Mr. Noonan asked the Minister for Public Enterprise the proposals, if any, she has to review the safety elements of rail operator training procedures to ensure the highest level of safety. [20808/99]
The railway safety programme 1999-2003, prepared and currently being implemented by Iarnród Éireann, identifies training as a key component in the development of improved safety management systems. The content of training for rail operators is an operational matter for Iarnród Éireann. I have no function in this matter.
