226. To ask the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport the number of additional bus drivers required to ensure that all BusConnects routes are staffed; the number of bus drivers that have exited and entered the Dublin Bus group of drivers in the past 10 years to date; and the way in which and or rules that Dublin Bus must follow when deploying its driver group on its services, that is, in the context of its public service obligations and its own commercial interests.

As 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 management and operational aspects of public transport.

The queries raised are operational matters for Dublin Bus. Accordingly, I have forwarded the Deputy's question to the company for direct reply. Please advise my private office if you do not receive a response within ten working days.
