My Department received an application on 12 February 2009 from the operator referred to by the Deputy for the provision of bus passenger services from Galway Airport to Fairgreen Galway City. In accordance with long standing practice, details of applications received by my Department remain confidential until a decision is made.

The operator has been informed that this application is currently being processed and will be considered under the provisions of the Road Transport Act 1932. My Department will contact the operator with the outcome of their considerations in due course.
