Mr. Stephen Kent:

We have just introduced the electric service in Athlone, so the members are not wrong. If BusConnects is going to put more kilometres in that one is going to drive, the company's CO2 emissions will go up, but the community and environmental CO2 emissions will come down. It could come down on two fronts. One is that cars will be removed from it. We talked about the school transport scheme, and KPMG did a study for us last year which ended up saying that if we put that in, it takes about 12,500,000 car journeys off the road.
