Mr. David McRedmond:

That is the case currently. We are very keen to get electric vehicles on the road and will be the first to do so. However, it is not an extra vehicle that travels from Athlone or Portlaoise to Cork, rather it is a vehicle that travels from Portlaoise to Cork. We do not have hundreds of vehicles. That is how the network works. Yes, there will be extra vehicle runs, but there will not be a huge number.
