I propose to take Questions Nos. 660 and 666 together.
As Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport I have responsibility for policy and overall funding in relation to public transport and as the Deputy is aware, the National Transport Authority (NTA) has statutory responsibility for securing or providing public transport in the State in relation to bus stops, bus shelters, bus stations, bus stands and bus fleets.
Noting the NTA's responsibility in the matter, I have referred the Deputy's question to the Authority for direct reply. I ask the Deputy to advise my private office if he does not receive a reply within ten working days.
A referred reply was forwarded to the Deputy under Standing Order 42A.
