(2) Has the Minister been advised of any possible changes to planning priorities for extension of the network as a result of work on this plan, and if so will the Minister please provide details of these possible changes?
(3) Has the Minister been advised of any possible changes to major infrastructure investment priorities as a result of work on this plan, and if so will the Minister please provide details of these possible changes?
(4) Has the Minister been advised of any possible changes to funding needed to sustain the system as a result of work on this plan, and if so will the Minister please provide details of these possible changes?

(1)-(4) The current ten-year plan for public transport was published in 1998 and so requires replacement by 2007. A new plan is being developed by the Public Transport Authority and the Department for Planning and Infrastructure. It is in draft form and is currently being considered by senior executives, before being forwarded for consideration by Government.
