As Minister for Transport, I have responsibility for policy and overall funding in relation to public transport. The National Transport Authority (NTA) has national responsibility for integrated local and rural transport, including management of the Rural Transport Programme which operates under the TFI Local Link brand.

In light of the NTA's responsibilities for the hop-on-hop-off Wild Atlantic Way bus services, I have referred your question to the NTA for a direct reply to you. Please advise my private office if you do not receive a reply within ten working days.
