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 operations of public transport. The National Transport Authority (NTA) has statutory responsibility for securing the provision of accessible public passenger transport services in conjunction with the respective service operator.

In that regard, the concerns relating to the accessibility of Sallins train station, are a matter for Irish Rail and I have forwarded your correspondence to the company for direct reply. Please advise my private office if you do not receive a response within ten working days.
