278. Deputy Joe Carey asked the Minister for Transport if there are any plans to implement additional stops (details supplied) to the Ennis - Milltown Malbay Bus Route 333. [27501/23]

As Minister for Transport, I have responsibility for policy and overall funding in relation to public transport. The National Transport Authority (NTA) has responsibility for the planning and development of public transport infrastructure, including the provision of bus stops and bus shelters.

Noting the NTA's responsibility in the matter, I have referred the Deputy's question to the NTA for a direct reply. Please contact my private office if you do not receive a reply within 10 days.
