Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport
Irish Rail, Bus Éireann and Dublin Bus: Chairpersons Designate
9:00 am
Mr. Frank Allen:
It is spent on maintaining and upgrading the quality of the service provided. For example, on the route that Deputy Munster is concerned about, which I use regularly myself, the Wi-Fi system needs to be upgraded. More money is needed for that and a procurement process is in place for it. Making sure that carriages, which people feel and see on the train, are of a good quality is another necessity. The cash available from additional passenger revenue, fare box revenues, goes to making sure that the day-to-day, routine stuff can be done a little better.
