I propose to take Questions Nos. 265 to 270, inclusive, and 276 together.

The provision of car parking at railway stations is a matter for Iarnród Éireann in conjunction, where appropriate, with the relevant local authority. My Department will consider applications from Iarnród Éireann for funding of such measures. The imposition of parking fees for such parking is a matter for the Company.

My Department has asked Iarnród Éireann to forward details of car parking available and planned at railway stations in Co. Kildare to the Deputy.
