As Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport, I have responsibility for policy and overall funding in relation to public transport. The National Transport Authority (NTA) has statutory responsibility for the implementation and development of infrastructure projects in the Greater Dublin Area (GDA), such as Bus Rapid Transit (BRT), and Luas light rail projects.
Noting this I have referred the Deputy's question and correspondence to the NTA for direct reply. Please advise my private office if you do not receive a reply within 10 working days.
