As Minister for Transport, I have responsibility for policy and overall funding in relation to public transport. The National Transport Authority (NTA) has statutory responsibility for the planning and development of public transport infrastructure in the Greater Dublin Area, including BusConnects.

The issue raised in relation to bus stops in Shannon town, County Clare having current and accurate timetables for the 343-bus service are a matter in the first instance for Bus Éireann, in conjunction with the National Transport Authority (NTA). 

I have, therefore, referred the Deputy's question to Bus Éireann and the NTA for direct reply. Please advise my private office if you do not receive a reply within ten working days.
