Ms Anne Graham:
We have a contract now to provide what we are calling next-generation AVL, or the automatic vehicle location system on the bus. We will start with our main bus services, as in those provided by those Dublin Bus, Go-Ahead and Bus Éireann, but we have a module in there of what we are calling AVL light, which can be attached to the ticketing system on the Local Link bus services. That will give a signal and enable us to track where the bus is and to then give real-time information. It is definitely something we want to deliver. We have it included within that contract that we can deliver it, but it will just take some time and will be later in that contract delivery.
