Noel Dempsey (Meath West, Fianna Fail)

Every now and again I examine the timetable to see the services available at various times. Iarnród Éireann is trying to make more efficient use of the capacity in place and there have been changes to services in various areas. The change is based on passenger usage and on trying to ensure in the tightened financial circumstances that it runs the trains at the times sought most by passengers, rather than running them at times when passengers are not using them and losing money.
