Mr. Seán Ó Foghlú:

I am going to come to that now. We also focused on the fixed charge. We carried out a detailed report on the fixed charge at that time as well. We concluded that the best way to reduce the fixed charge was to cap it. Previously we had a cheap seat for every child, which meant that we did not have spare capacity. When we moved away from that, the extent of the charge meant that reserves were building up, from which Bus Éireann was occasionally able to purchase buses with our agreement. The company purchased computer equipment, dealt with other matters, improved their mapping of routes and so on.
