I thank the Minister of State for answering all the questions in a direct way. I was listening, by the way, to words like "deprioritised" and "discommoded" for certain areas of County Dublin but try living in County Kerry, where the last train leaves at 7 p.m. I thought I would make that point. If you are here you cannot even have your dinner in the evening and catch a train afterwards, hardly.

I have not been able to get an answer from the NTA about the cost of the production and delivery of Leap cards for five- to eight-year-olds. I think it is called the card personalisation service. We submitted a parliamentary question to the NTA for an answer on how much has been spent on these Leap cards, because they are not working at the moment. There are problems with them. I understand the process is ongoing but does the Minister of State have any figures for how much has been spent on these cards, which have not been fully implemented to date?
