129. To ask the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport if his attention has been drawn to the difficulties with which rural communities have been presented due to the lack of co-ordination between changes to bus and rail timetables, in particular in circumstances in which a bus route from Dingle, County Kerry, had buses cut from the timetable, making it impossible for passengers to arrive in Tralee before the train for Dublin departs during weekdays; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

As the Minister for Transport, I have responsibility for policy and overall funding in relation to public transport.
The issue raised is a matter for the National Transport Authority (NTA) in conjunction with Bus Éireann and I have forwarded the Deputy's question to the NTA for direct reply.
Please advise my private office if you do not receive a response within ten working days.
