The air accident investigation unit's report did not set out to apportion liability and rightly so, given it was about the prevention of accidents. Are there insurance implications for the awarding of the SAR contract? Has that been considered? In the context of an outsourced service, where does liability lie and has the Department taken advice on that?
The Department has responsibility for collecting motor tax but it goes to the Exchequer. How is it rerouted to the Department, if at all?
The witnesses stated MetroLink is not included in 2030 targets. Will they provide us with a list of what increased and improved non-bus public transport will be provided in the context of our 2030 targets and break that down between the first and second climate budgets that have been outlined to 2030?
