Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 8 July 2026
29. Deputy Réada Cronin asked the Minister for Transport whether his Department has assessed transport barriers preventing young people from accessing youth services; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [51917/26]
Amharc ar fhreagraAs 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 in conjunction with the relevant transport operators.
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.
