The National Transport Authority (NTA) has statutory responsibility for the development and implementation of public transport and sustainable transport infrastructure including ticketing technology.

Noting the NTA's responsibility in the matter I have referred your question to the NTA for direct reply. Please advise my private office if you do not receive a reply within 10 working days.

The issue raised is a matter for Transport Infrastructure Ireland (TII) in conjunction with the Luas operator Transdev and I have forwarded the Deputy's question to TII for direct reply. Please advise my private office if you do not receive a response within ten working days.
