Jack Chambers (FF), Dublin West

I thank the Deputy for his question. There is a necessity for all business and service providers to provide value, particularly with the level of support the Government has given over the past 24 months. I acknowledge the concerns the Deputy has raised. We have all been shocked by the scale of the increases in the car rental sector. While neither the Department of Tourism, Culture, Arts, Gaeltacht, Sport and Media nor Fáilte Ireland has a direct role in prices, there is broad concern. I will ask the Minister, Deputy Catherine Martin, to respond to the query on the hop-on, hop-off service as well as the escalating prices.
