Since 2010 there is no subvention paid directly by my Department for public transport services. The award of Public Service Obligation (PSO) funding falls under the independent statutory remit of the National Transport Authority (NTA). As is normal, the allocations to the companies are decided by the NTA in exercise of its statutory mandate and in accordance with the various contract arrangements that it has in place with PSO service providers. I have therefore referred the Deputy's question to the NTA for direct reply. Please advise my private office if you do not receive a reply within ten working days.
