Public Accounts Committee: National Transport Authority: Financial Statements 2020 (27 Jan 2022)

Cormac Devlin: I am sorry, but I have limited time on this. I just want to say to Mr. Gaston that this is not due to traffic, because the bus never appears. The bus is not in traffic. The bus never runs. The 7.15 bus on the 63 route does not appear. I have corresponded with the NTA and the response is not good. The response to constituents is even worse.

Cormac Devlin: In the few minutes I have, I wish to raise two issues. One concerns security.
