Some people complain about the fact they just about make it. The red light on for the last ten or 15 miles. I know the Department of Transport will have the largest role in this, but you are the director of business for the public sector and transport. More photographs were taken on non-sitting days of the Dáil of Ministers on the 120 electric buses, 90 of which were designated for Dublin. I was wondering why there was still noise coming from buses around Dublin because, in my innocence, I thought that at this stage we would see all of these flying about, but I still see the diesel ones going around and these 120 buses are parked up. There is the cost of them and the fact the charging points are not in place. What is happening in this regard and what role have you in it?
