As the Minister for Transport, I have responsibility for policy and overall funding in relation to public transport. However, I am not involved in the day-to-day operations of public transport.

The issue raised is an operational matter for the operators of the public transport services, namely Iarnród Éireann, Bus Éireann, Dublin Bus, and Transport Infrastructure Ireland (TII) in respect of Luas, and 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.
