I apologise for being late. I thank the delegates for their presentation.
The Bus Éireann brand is trusted and provides a very strong service in both rural and urban area. The staff and vehicles are excellent. The school transport section is unique.
Does Bus Éireann support or agree with the tendering of the PSO contracts? Will Mr. Nolan elaborate on the reasons for his answers? Does he have a view on how the contracted would be bundled for tender? I think this goes to the nub of the debate.
