Question:
To ask the Minister for Infrastructure when she expects to announce the outcome of the Concessionary Fares Scheme survey undertaken in 2019.

Answer:

My Department worked with a range of voluntary and community sector organisations to develop and promote the Concessionary Fares Scheme survey which was undertaken to seek views on how the Scheme improves access to public transport and to demonstrate the contribution of the Scheme towards Outcome 8 of the Outcomes Delivery Plan – “we care for others and help those in need”.

Analysis of the survey is ongoing and I will publish a survey report when I receive it in coming months.
