Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 30 April 2026
144. Deputy Naoise Ó Cearúil asked the Minister for Transport if he will examine the potential reinstatement of a Dublin Bus service to Kilcock in order to improve connectivity for commuters in the area; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [31271/26]
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 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’s responsibility in this area, I have forwarded the Deputy's question to the NTA for direct reply. Please advise my private office if you do not receive a response within ten working days.
