Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport
Impact of Core Bus Corridor Proposals: Discussion
1:30 pm

Before our guests reply, I wish to state that there is huge interest in this matter, particularly in the constituencies through which the routes will run. Two Deputies who represent the same constituency have pointed out that there are serious concerns because there will be more gardens lost there. I do not expect our guests to reply in respect of many of the issues that have been raised, with the exception of those relating to policy. Without telling our guests what to do, I am of the opinion that it would be a good idea if Members of the Oireachtas were invited to attend a meeting at which the nitty-gritty details relating to locations, streets., etc. might be discussed with them and the relevant officials. Such a meeting would help broaden our knowledge of the matters that have been raised.
