Ms Anne Graham:

Yes, we do. On the fare box, the contracts we currently have are called the gross cost contracts with Bus Éireann, Dublin Bus and Go-Ahead Ireland. We retain the fare revenue and pay for the cost of operating the service. The fare revenue risk is with us rather than with the operators.

I will not comment on taxis with regard to causing congestion but, obviously, the increasing bus priority is a key objective for us and that the more space we can make available for public transport and for taxis also, the better people can get around the city and the more efficient our services are.

On the electric buses, we were delighted to be with Mr. Billy Hann and with the Minister launching the electric charging in Summerhill and we will be delighted to see more and more of the buses rolling out now over the next month, into next year and in future years.
