It may take longer if we were to have a tour. I believe it is worth doing because the implications of Brexit for transport are a significant part of it also.

If we visit the port and then invite the people who are concerned to attend a committee meeting, would members find that reasonable? Is that agreed? Agreed.

No. 2019/448 is an email dated 8 April 2019 from Donall Ó Buadhucháin concerning bicycles on intercity trains. We will send it to Irish Rail.

No. 2019/451 is an email from Catriona McClean regarding detachable ramps from wheelchair accessible taxis. It is proposed to note that correspondence. The Minister is supposed to attend to discuss with us issues regarding disability and transport. He cancelled a couple of weeks ago but we will write to get him in to update the committee. Is that agreed? Agreed.

Nos. 2019/456 and 2019/458 concern an email from the office of the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport on future reappointments of two persons. It is proposed to schedule a meeting in that regard as soon as the committee permits. Is that agreed? Agreed. I note to the committee that I have to attend the Topical Issue debate in the Dáil.
