Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport

Bus Coach Sector: Discussion

Mr. Brendan Crowley:

To take up on a point Mr. Conway made, which we have spoken to in regard to applying for route licences, we talked about the uncertainty of the process in the context of it taking eight weeks, eight months or a year. The important aspect, even as a short-term solution, is to tackle the immediate issue of where somebody needs to change something. I can apply for a licence today but I might not see it until the middle of next year, and by the time I get there, the traffic conditions may have changed. I may need to adjust the timetable and go through the process again.
