As Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport I have responsibility for policy and for the overall funding of public transport. Issues relating to the expansion of railway services and rail lines are a matter for Iarnród Éireann in the first instance.

In view of Iarnród Éireann's responsibility in this matter I have referred the Deputy's question to the company for direct reply. The Deputy should advise my Office if he does not receive a reply within ten working days.
