Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 28 April 2026
356. Deputy Albert Dolan asked the Minister for Transport the current status of any proposals under consideration by his Department, the National Transport Authority or Iarnród Éireann to reduce or discontinue the 6.50 a.m. train service from Athenry to Galway; the rationale underpinning any such proposals; whether a final decision has been made; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [29976/26]
View answerAs Minister of State, I have responsibility for International and Road Transport, Logistics, Rail and Ports; 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.
