Amharc ar fhreagraAs Minister for Transport, I have responsibility for policy and overall funding in relation to public transport. As a commercial semi-state body, Córas Iompair Éireann (CIÉ) are responsible for the provision of pension schemes for their employees under the Transport Act, 1950 and Transport (Re-Organisation of Córas Iompair Éireann) Act, 1986.
Decisions regarding the administration of pension schemes are ultimately a matter for the CIÉ Board as informed by actuarial advice and are subject to requirements imposed by statute and scheme rules.
Accordingly, I have referred the Deputy's question to CIÉ for further information. Please advise my private office if you do not receive a reply within ten working days.
