Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 23 June 2020
695. Deputy Duncan Smith asked the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport the allocation for cycling and pedestrian work under the BusConnects programme; the proportion of the spend it accounts for; the value placed on it; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [12257/20]
Amharc ar fhreagraAs 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 planning and development of public transport infrastructure, including the BusConnects Programme.
Noting the NTA's responsibility in the matter, I have referred the Deputy's question to the NTA for a more detailed reply. Please contact my private office if you do not receive a reply within 10 days.
