Mr. Hugh Creegan:

We have already heard some of these concerns. We will see what changes ultimately get incorporated.

We looked at whether the connection to the airport should be provided. It was tried several years ago without great success. Our view was that it would be a low-frequency service. We do not think it was the right route to put in. It was felt it was quicker to take other routes rather than this type of one.

The intention is to take the feedback from this consultation, make the final changes to the network and publish it early next year as the final network for implementation. In terms of consultation, our intention is that this would be the opportunity for people to give their final comments on the proposals. It is for us to work away through them and publish a final plan early next year.
