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 for increasing the services and passenger numbers on the Ballybrophy to Limerick rail line 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.
