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. The National Transport Authority (NTA) has statutory responsibility for securing the provision of public passenger transport services nationally and for the scheduling and timetabling of these services in conjunction with the relevant transport operators.
Therefore, in light of the NTA's responsibility in this area I have forwarded the Deputy's question in relation to the possible provision of a Dublin Bus 27x service from UCD Belfield to Clarehall at 18.10 on Mondays to Fridays during term periods only, to the NTA for direct reply. Please advise my private office if you do not receive a response within ten working days.
A referred reply was forwarded to the Deputy under Standing Order 51.
