Minister for Transport

As Minister for Transport, I am responsible for policy and overall funding in relation to public transport. However, I am not involved in day-to-day operational matters.

The query raised is a matter for the individual transport operators and I have forwarded the Deputy's question to Bus Éireann, Dublin Bus, Irish Rail, GoAhead and the Luas operator for direct reply.

Please advise my private office if you do not receive a response within ten working days.

A referred reply was forwarded to the Deputy under Standing Order 51
