Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport and Communications
Tendering of Bus Services: National Transport Authority
9:50 am
Mr. Gerry Murphy:
I am not concerned at all because they are existing routes that serve existing needs and people who need the bus services. They are subsidised services and the State provides them because there is a need for them. The routes will be retained and we are simply putting it out to tender to see whether another operator can win the route. It does not change the strategy for public transport.
