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 National Transport Authority (NTA) has statutory responsibility for determining the fares to be charged on services.

The issue raised by the Deputy is a matter for the NTA, and I have therefore referred the question to the NTA for direct response. Please advise my private office if you do not receive a reply within ten working days.
