I refer the Deputy to my reply to Dáil Questions Nos. 19, 32, 55 and 100 regarding additional buses for Dublin Bus. These buses, together with the new buses to be purchased by Bus Éireann, will facilitate the expansion and extension of services to serve new developments. The detailed deployment of the additional buses, including the areas and routes to be served and the frequency of service is a matter for the companies having regard to the level of demand and resources available to them.
