If Bus Éireann was to become insolvent, what kind of cost would we be looking at? I understand the Bus Éireann workforce of 2,600 workers pays a little less than €60 million a year to the State in payroll taxes. There would be cost from redundancy pay and social welfare payments. What is Ms Graham's ballpark figure for the cost in that circumstance?
