Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 2 December 2025
81. Deputy Ciarán Ahern asked the Minister for Transport his views that there is a necessity for ticket inspectors onboard trains given tickets are scanned at departure gates and exit gates in most cases; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [67404/25]
View answerAs 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 query raised by the Deputy and fare revenue protection is an operational matter for Iarnród Éireann. 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 reply within ten working days.
