Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 22 November 2022
215. Deputy Louise O'Reilly asked the Minister for Transport if workers at Irish Rail, Dublin Luas, Bus Éireann and Dublin Bus and in a company (details supplied) will be provided with free public transport across all public transport networks in the State; and if they will also be provided with free public transport for a nominated partner and family member. [57504/22]
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 issue of free travel for employees and a nominated partner and family member would fall within the terms of employment offered and would be a matter for the individual public transport operators.
Therefore, I have forwarded the Deputy's question to each of the named operators for direct reply. Please advise my private office if you do not receive a response within ten working days.
