Mr. Hugh Creegan:

I will start, but I will need assistance on some of those. I am not sure what funding per capita is, but the reality is that the larger conurbations obviously need much more investment to deal with the population there. At the same time, just as we have programmes in place on the bus side, such as BusConnects, for the urban areas, we have a matching programme, Connecting Ireland, for all the rural areas. Our intention is to try to provide a good level of service everywhere, irrespective of where you are. Only one of the three bus routes mentioned by the Senator is a State-operated subsidised service, which is the 321. The others are commercially provided. Mr. Kent and others will have to answer for those. The stops mentioned by the Senator are on route 13. Again, that is the commercial service so I will have to defer on that one too.
