Public Transport Regulation Bill 2009: Committee Stage
4:00 pm
Brendan Ryan (Labour)
The object of amendment No. 5 is to prevent the cherry-picking of profitable routes while leaving loss-making and more troublesome routes to State companies. It would also ensure a free-for-all would not be allowed in the bus sector with competition strictly regulated. These are important amendments which would improve the legislation and are worthy of acceptance by the Minister.
