Martin Cullen (Waterford, Fianna Fail)

As Minister responsible, I am charged with maximising the use of taxpayers' money. I have asked Dublin Bus to do this evaluation, but I cannot go to Busáras and write it for Dublin Bus. As soon as the company has completed its assessment, we agree terms and it comes to me, I will give Dublin Bus the new buses.

Unless policy has changed — Labour Party and Fine Gael Party policy seems to be different every morning when the party leaders come into the House — value for money must be part of the equation. Dublin Bus must maximise the use of buses
