181. Deputy Barry Heneghan asked the Minister for Transport if he could outline what actions are being taken to improve the reliability of the Dublin Bus Network in light of serious issues of 130 bus service including repeated cancellations and inconsistencies between scheduled and operated services; the number and percentage of scheduled 130 services that were cancelled or did not operate in each month of 2025 and to date in 2026, in tabular form; the reasons for these cancellations; and the measures that are being taken to improve reliability on the route. [67398/26]

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 query raised by the Deputy is an operational matter for Dublin Bus. I have, therefore, referred the Deputy's question to the company for direct reply. Please advise my private office if you do not receive a reply within ten working days.
