Deputy Lawless can come in again very shortly. I thank the witnesses for the answers. We are going to do an additional round, with two minutes per member. I am going to go first in the roster again. I want to ask Mr. Kent about Bus Éireann's Expressway service from Dublin to Limerick. That serves an awful lot of people in Clare, where I live. At the moment, there are five services per day from Dublin Busáras down to Limerick. On good old Google, I was able to go back and find old timetables going back a couple of decades. There used to be six services per day, and eight services per day at one point. It seems to be reduced. Bus Éireann Expressway has five services per day currently, and Irish Rail has 18 services per day on that Dublin-Limerick way. I wonder is it NTA I need to take this up with, or is it Bus Éireann's rivals in J.J. Kavanagh and Sons or Dublin Coach? Why is it a diminished service in the eye of the public? That is my question.
