asked the Minister for Industry and Commerce if he will request Córas Iompair Éireann to supply a bus service at least once a week from Hollyford to Tipperary town to serve the district including Hollyford, Cappawhite, Donohill.

The responsibility for making provision to meet the demand for transport services has been placed by the Transport Act, 1950, on the board of Córas Iompair Éireann. I suggest that the Deputy should address his request in this matter direct to Córas Iompair Éireann.
