I propose to take Questions Nos. 1045 and 1046 together.

The National Transport Authority (NTA) is responsible for the administration and expansion of the Public Bikes Scheme in Dublin and the regional cities of Galway, Limerick and Cork in cooperation with the relevant authorities.

I have forwarded your questions in relation to statistics and the expansion of the scheme to the NTA for attention.  If you have not received a response within 10 working days please contact my private office.
