Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 13 December 2022
228. Deputy Kieran O'Donnell asked the Minister for Transport if he will consider matters raised by a person (details supplied) in respect of train schedules; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [62080/22]
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 and for the scheduling of these services in conjunction with the relevant transport operators.
In light of the Authority's responsibility in this area, I have forwarded the Deputy's specific question in relation to the availability of trains from Heuston Station Dublin after 6pm, to the NTA for direct reply. Please advise my private office if you do not receive a response within ten working days
