Joint Oireachtas Committee on Climate, Environment and Energy

Climate Change Targets 2026-2030: Discussion (Resumed)

2:00 am

Mr. Hugh Creegan:

There are two different models that we use. For the larger contracts in the Dublin area with Go-Ahead Ireland, we actually provide the vehicles as part of those contracts. We have a set of requirements in the contracts as to how the vehicles are to be maintained and kept in good condition. When it comes to the Connecting Ireland services, generally we tender those services where the operator provides the vehicle and there are smaller operations. There is an arrangement in place where a spare vehicle is accessible, but because they are small operators they do not tend to have the spare vehicle sitting in their yard and have to make separate arrangements.
