Mr. Tim Gaston:
The Luas has a separate arrangement with the Department. Like CIÉ, it gets a block grant; the payment is not based on activity. The only services whose payment is based on activity are the commercial bus operators. They are paid based on the level of activity they undertake whereas CIÉ and Luas receive block grants.
