- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: National Transport Authority: Chairperson Designate (6 Dec 2023)
Gerry Horkan: While this is not an issue for today, the committee would like to know what the different areas are and what people are doing. Are the 260 people all at a management or administrative level? It would help us to understand if we were told how many of them are dealing with PSO transport, licensing, the management of active travel projects and so on. That is probably a question for Anne Graham.

Gerry Horkan: April 2023 to April 2028. We may or may not see him again because once we have done this bit, we do not generally tend to see the chairperson designate or the chairpersons after that. It is generally the chief executive and the operational team. I thank Mr. Strachan and all the members who participated today.
