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 provision and operation of public transport. 

The issue raised by the Deputy regarding plans to increase the frequency of trains on the Castleconnell Station to Limerick route is an operational matter for the National Transport Authority (NTA) in conjunction with Iarnród Éireann and I have therefore forwarded the Deputy's question to the NTA for direct reply. 

Please advise my private office if you do not receive a response within ten working days.
