As 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 operations of public transport.

The question raised by the deputy in relation to the additional buses and drivers that would be required to increase the frequency of Dublin Bus route 44 to every 30 minutes in both directions between the hours of 7.30am to 5.30pm on Mondays to Friday is an operational matter for Dublin Bus.

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