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 operations of public transport.

The issues raised concerning possible plans that are being considered or implemented to improve the Dublin to Sligo rail service, are an operational matter for the NTA in conjunction with Iarnród Éireann and I have therefore forwarded the Deputy's question to the NTA for direct reply. Please advise my private office if you do not receive a response within ten working days.
