As Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport I have responsibility for policy and overall funding in relation to public transport.

The National Transport Authority (NTA) has responsibility for the development and implementation of public transport infrastructure, including the provision of bus shelters. I am advised that the NTA has developed a strategy for determination of investment in the installation of bus shelters around the country.

In light of the NTA's responsibility in this area, I have referred the Deputy's question to the NTA for direct reply. I ask him to advise my private office if he does not receive a reply within 10 working days.
