As Minister for Transport, I have responsibility for policy and overall funding in relation to public transport. The National Transport Authority, or NTA, has responsibility for planning and developing public transport infrastructure, and for developing the Cork Metropolitan Area Transport Strategy 2040, or CMATS.

Noting the NTA's responsibility in the matter, I have referred the Deputy's question to the NTA for a detailed direct reply. Please contact my private office if you do not receive a reply.

Pending this detailed response, I note that in order to support its role in the development of public transport, the NTA has established an office in Cork City, located at 1 Horgan’s Quay, Waterfront Square.

A referred reply was forwarded to the Deputy under Standing Orders.
