Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport and Communications

National Transport Authority: Chairman Designate

12:45 pm

Mr. John Fitzgerald:

I do not really. If we tried to bolt the NRA and all that it involves onto the NTA we could reach a critical mass whereby the organisation would fall over itself. There is a critical mass in all of these things. We have to trust the system, in this case, my working with Fred Barry and his people. We meet them all the time and we talk to them all the time. We have a good working relationship with them. I have never yet come across any issue in respect of which we could not discuss and come up with a solution. My attitude is that they are working fine and doing a good job and I believe we have done a good job too. We are close enough to each other and know each other well enough to be able to sort out any issues that might come up. I would be inclined to leave well enough alone.
