My Department has no function in relation to this matter. Industrial relations in Iarnród Éireann are a day-to-day operational matter for the company itself and the trade unions concerned.

I am pleased that the issue have been resolved and that passengers on the Dublin to Cork rail service are availing of the increased standards provided by the new Mark IV trains.
