As Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport I have responsibility for policy and overall funding in relation to public transport.

The issue raised by the Deputy is a matter for the public transport operator, Irish Rail. I have therefore forwarded her question to Irish Rail for direct reply to her. Please advise my private office if you do not receive a response within 10 working days.

A referred reply was forwarded to the Deputy under Standing Order 42A
