The current issue with the cost of living presents an opportunity to promote public transport. Cost is a factor for many people. At one stage, Irish Rail was pushing people to go online. It brought the fares down and there was a huge uptake. It is something that I ask be considered. I take it the Minister has a submission gone into the Government from his Department on the issue. I wish him well with that. I will respect his decision not to comment.
