As Minister for Transport, I have responsibility for policy and overall funding in relation to cycling and public transport infrastructure. The management of bike sharing schemes is a matter for the National Transport Authority (NTA), which works closely with the relevant local authorities.
Noting the NTA's responsibilities in the matter, I have referred your question to the NTA for a more detailed reply . Please advise my private office if you do not receive a reply within 10 working days.
