A joined-up approach to the pricing of public transport is vital. I will be travelling to Kerry next week and spending the day there. I have four options for getting there - car, bus, rail or plane. When I checked when planning the trip a couple weeks ago, the plane was the cheapest option. It was cheaper than rail, cheaper than fuel for the car would be and cheaper than the bus. That is absolutely crazy. I thank Ms Donnelly for coming before the committee today.
