380. To ask the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport if there are plans to reintroduce catering services to Irish Rail trains running from Tralee to Dublin, as is the case with the Cork to Dublin route, and which has been unavailable since Covid-19; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

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 by the Deputy is an operational matter for Irish Rail. Therefore, I have referred the Deputy's question to Irish Rail for direct response to the Deputy.
Please advise my private office if you do not receive a reply within ten working days.
