Mr. Tom O'Mahony:

I thank the Deputy for his remarks. It is hugely important for the development of public transport. The results are beginning to show. People who previously would not consider taking the bus for all types of reasons now welcome that while sitting somewhere having a cappuccino they can access information, by way of an app on their iPhone, on when a bus will be at a particular location and so on.
