As Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport, I have responsibility for policy and overall funding in relation to public transport.  The NTA has statutory responsibility for the planning and development of public transport infrastructure  in the Greater Dublin Area, including the Royal Canal cycleway and walkway.

Noting the NTA's responsibility for implementation of public transport in the Greater Dublin Area, I have referred the Deputy's question to the NTA for a more detailed reply.  Please contact my private office if you do not receive a reply within 10 days.
