As Minister for Transport, I have responsibility for policy and overall funding in relation to public transport. However, the day-to-day management and operational aspects of public transport are the responsibility of the individual operators - in this case, Dublin Bus and Bus Éireann.

Accordingly, I have forwarded the Deputy's question to the companies for direct reply. Please advise my private office if you do not receive a response within ten working days.
