What does Mr. Doyle mean when he says it "causes issues"? We have just established that there has been a significant decrease in the subvention payments for public service provision since 2010. We have also heard from Mr. Doyle today that there has been a freeze in the free travel contribution. All of this tells me that Bus Éireann is facing significant challenges as it seeks to provide a service without the levels of subvention it would have received in the past. The current situation is of relevance in this context.
