Louise O'Reilly (Dublin Fingal, Sinn Fein) | Oireachtas source

The 33A, 33B and 102 routes are vital links in my constituency, linking Malahide to the airport, Malahide to Swords and Skerries to Swords. People rely on these services but they have been left at the side of the road. They have a choice at that point - to miss their hospital appointments or be late for work or to get into their cars and drive. If something is not done about this, we will be forcing people into a situation where they will either be constantly late for work - the Minister of State knows what the consequences of this are - hospital appointments or school or they will be forced into their cars. That is not acceptable.

I am disappointed. When I asked the Minister of State what she proposed to do about this, she gave us a long-winded description of the problem. We know what the problem is. We want to know what she is prepared to do about it.
