Tommy Broughan (Dublin North East, Labour)

Commuters are hopping mad. I understand there have been large meetings of commuters in Drogheda, who are very angry about the deterioration in the service. The opposite of the Minister's statement appears to be the case. Rush hour trains are less frequent, with greater frequency at off peak times, which no one can understand.

However, there is one good news story. At last, a new station will open in my constituency at Clongriffin but I understand we will have two trains there per hour if we are lucky. I emphasise that the Minister is the author of this timetable.
