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 issue raised is a matter for Iarnród Éireann and 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 response within ten working days.
