Mr. Jim Meade:

It is always good to interact with public representatives in order that we both understand our needs and requirements. In terms of masks, we work closely with the general secretary of the National Bus and Railworkers' Union, NBRU, Mr. O'Leary, and with all our staff, to ensure their safety and that of our customers. As I said earlier, we always comply with the Government guidelines on mask wearing and will continue to support it, as long as we are requested to do so.

I am probably a day early speaking on Cork Port, because, tomorrow, I will go down to meet its CEO, to have the very discussion about which the Senator spoke, to see how our freight strategy interacts with their plans and how we can reconnect. We are focused on the fact that Cork can contribute to moving freight back onto rail. I will have that conversation with him tomorrow.
