Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 23 February 2023
181. Deputy Claire Kerrane asked the Minister for Transport if free travel scheme holders have to book train journeys online in order to use their pass; if this is the case for all public transport; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [9369/23]
Amharc ar fhreagraAs the 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 raised by the Deputy in relation to Iarnród Eireann's booking system for free travel users is an operational matter for the company and I have therefore forwarded the Deputy's question to the Iarnród Éireann for direct reply. Please advise my private office if you do not receive a response within ten working days.
