Yes, the position is the same there as it was the last time. That is helpful, thanks.

I touched on a number of routes the last time I was here and I specifically asked about the 105 route. I got a response from Bus Éireann and the NTA that a review of the schedule on that service would take place over the summer. Is this a standard thing that happens or will there be other reviews? The progress we have made in recent months is welcome. I presume there is contingency still in place so we have some private operators with smaller buses filling the gap. However, there are still some challenges on many of those services, including the 103 and 109 routes.
