Paschal Donohoe (Dublin Central, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

It is because there has been a change in our economy that we have the ability to invest more. We are investing more in longer Luas carriages, new Luas services, including the opening up of Luas cross-city route, new improved train and DART frequencies and greater numbers of buses. In respect of private transport and the need to make private cars more efficient, we are putting in place, and have out to public consultation currently, a new policy on alternative fuels, biomass and compressed natural gas to make more of such fuel sources available for use in private vehicles.
