320. To ask the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport if he will consider a revised pricing policy for those commuters using the train stations of south County Kildare, in view of the recently announced report by the National Transport Authority that has recommended up to 50% reductions for commuters using the train stations of north County Kildare on the same rail line.

​I propose to take Questions Nos. 319 and 320 together.

The issues raised are a matter for the National Transport Authority (NTA) and I have forwarded the Deputy's questions to the NTA for direct reply.  Please advise my private office if you do not receive a response within ten working days.
