One of our witnesses this morning spoke about a relationship between Irish Rural Link and the private sector contractor. Perhaps the NTA witnesses could elaborate on that.

The impression I got this morning was that the Local Link and the private service contractors would work together and the bus services and the hackney and taxi services could be linked up. It would be a paid or subsidised service.
