Ceist:

219.

As 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 falls 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.

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