200. To ask the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport if the National Transport Authority has a designated preferential daily rate in the Dublin city coach park to facilitate all day parking for operators of multiple services vehicles providing scheduled licensed public service into Dublin in view of fact that Dublin City Council are proposing a charge of €9 in all coach parking locations throughout Dublin city; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

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 statutory responsibility for the planning and development of public transport infrastructure in the Greater Dublin Area, including the Coach Park referred to by the Deputy.

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