Mr. Hugh Creegan:

On the DART issue which was mentioned, the intention is that the new DART fleet will have that type of sliding floor extension which closes that gap. These will come on stream approximately two years from now. They were a case where a mock-up of the DART carriages was prepared and the people were brought in from various disability groups to review that and get feedback on it. That feedback fed into the final design process.

On the issue of bus stops, the local authority approved the bus stop location. We may be blamed for it because we may have proposed that location, but under the legislation, the local authority is the only body which can approve or not approve a bus stop location. In the case of McKee Avenue, therefore, we had to go to Dublin City Council and ask it for consent on a particular section, and it gave approval for that stop.
