The programme for Government stated that there would be integrated ticketing between bus, rail and DART stations and smart card technology but we have seen no sign of that. These are essential things which are taken for granted in most other European cities. The programme for Government also stated that the metro for Dublin would be developed on a public private partnership basis making the maximum use of private finance and achieving a link to Dublin Airport by 2007. Like Senator Mansergh, I hope there will be a link to the airport by 2007 and that there will be a metro.
