Public Transport
Dail Éireann — 2026-09-24
============================================================

Ciarán Ahern (LAB), Dublin South-West

This is a simple one for the Minister of State. I am glad to hear from Deputy Buttimer that the budget negotiations with the Department of public expenditure are ongoing because my question is whether the Minister will provide the €70 million in funding that the NTA says is required to avoid the increase in public transport fares.
