I propose to take Questions Nos. 199 to 202, inclusive, together.

As Minister for Transport, I have responsibility for policy and overall funding in relation to cycling and public transport infrastructure.  The management of the public bike schemes is a matter for the National Transport Authority (NTA), which works closely with the relevant local authorities.

Noting the NTA's role in the matter, I have referred your question to that agency for a more detailed reply. 

Please advise my private office if you do not receive a reply within 10 working days.
