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 operation and provision of public transport.

I understand that Dublin Bus are engaging with trade union representatives and An Garda Síochána concerning the ongoing issues with regard to service provision in West Tallaght. However, the issue of the ongoing operation of specific bus services in Dublin is first and foremost an operational matter for Dublin Bus and I have therefore forwarded the Deputy's question to the company for direct reply. Please advise my private office if you do not receive a response within ten working days.
