I have no function in relation to this matter. The structure of fares is an operational matter for the CIE companies.

The decision to operate public bus services on specific days of the week is an operational matter for bus operators. I understand that in the case of Bus Éireann, they are considering the introduction of such services, in the light of my announcement today on expanding the company's bus fleet.
