As 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.

Further, the proposed route mentioned by the Deputy is a commercial bus service operated by Dublin Coach and responsibility for the operation of the service is a matter for the company.

In light of the NTA's responsibility in this area as the licensing authority for the commercial bus sector, I have forwarded the Deputy's query to the NTA for direct reply. Please advise my private office if you do not receive a response within ten working days.
