Mr. Gerry Murphy:

I cannot provide a figure for the number of senior managers or comment on that general view. In our interface with them on the contractual side, we recognise that Bus Éireann is quite stretched at management level. They carry a huge workload. A number of initiatives are currently underway, such as Leap Card, real time information and the reconfiguration of cities. It is my anecdotal view from meeting them that they are not over served at management level. We see the same people dealing with multiple projects and they are very stretched at management level.
