Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 26 February 2026
115. Deputy Richard Boyd Barrett asked the Minister for Transport to engage with Iarnród Éireann on the reason on a regular basis, DARTS do not have the maximum number of possible carriages at peak times, resulting in excessive over-crowding and the inability of passengers to board the DART; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [15293/26]
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 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.
