263 Mr. Eamon Ryan asked the Minister for Transport if the motorway bus route between Dundalk, Drogheda and Dublin has been awarded to a private bus operator and Bus Éireann were not given the necessary permissions to compete on the route but instead are confined to serving the old route and its attendant villages; his views on whether this means that Bus Éireann are left with the high cost route while being deprived of the chance to recoup that cost on the potentially profitable motorway route; if this is the case, the rational behind the move; and the reason Bus Éireann cannot compete with the private operator on the motorway route.
