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 securing the provision of public passenger transport services nationally and for the scheduling and timetabling of these services in conjunction with the relevant transport operators, in this case Dublin Bus.

In light of the NTA and Dublin Bus's responsibility in this area, I have forwarded the Deputy's query to them both for direct reply. Please advise my private office if you do not receive a response within ten working days.
