That is helpful. We need to be assured that the State funding provided is used to ensure efficient service provision. I do not feel assured of this at present. My sense is that, as Mr. Hernan stated, a huge root-and-branch restructuring is needed. As representatives, we need to know, in practical terms, what measures Bus Éireann will implement so that there will be for money and that the best service possible will be offered in rural and urban areas.
