Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 20 February 2018
492. Deputy Thomas P. Broughan asked the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport if he will report on the public service obligation to Bus Éireann, Dublin Bus and Iarnród Éireann in 2017 and 2018, in tabular form; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [8352/18]
Amharc ar fhreagraSince 2010 there is no subvention paid directly by my Department for public transport services.
The award of Public Service Obligation (PSO) contracts falls under the independent statutory remit of the National Transport Authority (NTA) and I have referred the Deputy's question to the NTA for direct reply. Please advise my private office if you do not receive a response within ten working days.
