It is a matter for Dublin Bus, within the resources available to it from fare revenue and Exchequer subvention, to optimise its services in the most efficient and effective manner, while maintaining as high a level of service as possible to the travelling public. Day to day decisions in this regard are matters for the company. I published yesterday the report by Deloittes on a Cost and Efficiency Review of Bus Éireann and Dublin Bus and I have asked the Chairman of both companies to bring forward at an early date a programme to implement the recommendations in the report.
