Simon Harris (Wicklow, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

I have two special advisers. Every Minister has two Government advisers. That is a matter of fact and it is well known what special advisers do in Departments.

On public transport, I will ask the Minister for Transport to revert directly to the Deputy. Fuel costs are a real issue for all our constituents, regardless of our political affiliations. I hope the Government can do something to assist the public generally and students specifically. We will reflect on the cost of living impacts on students and all people in the country as we approach the budget.
