Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 22 September 2022
36. Deputy Mark Ward asked the Minister for Transport to report on the delivery of service by a company (details supplied) including cancellations of buses; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [45994/22]
Amharc ar fhreagraAs Minister for Transport, I have responsibility for policy and overall funding in relation to public transport; however, I am not involved in the day-to-day operations of public transport. The National Transport Authority (NTA) has statutory responsibility for securing the provision of public passenger transport services nationally and for the scheduling and timetabling of these services in conjunction with the relevant transport operators.
In light of the Authority's responsibility in this area, I have forwarded the Deputy's specific question in relation to the delivery of service by Go-Ahead Ireland including cancellations of buses, to the NTA for direct reply. Please advise my private office if you do not receive a response within ten working days.
