Ivor Callely (Dublin North Central, Fianna Fail)

I pay tribute not just to Dublin Bus for which I have the height of respect because it is going about its business and developing its services in a proactive manner — it was mentioned by Deputy McGuinness in the context of suburban services — but also to Bus Éireann and its new acting chief executive, Mr. Tim Hayes, for the manner in which the company has developed services throughout the country and ensured that the social requirements of villages and parishes are accommodated. That will continue.

I say to all the Members that have made specific points that I do not have the time or opportunity to reply. The Leas-Cheann Comhairle is about to call me to order regarding the time I have available.
