Text
I thank the Member for his question to the Minister for Infrastructure.
In fairness, there is a point about ensuring that public transport is available. That will be considered with the organisers, led by Belfast City Council, which is working with all partners, including Translink, in ensuring that we put on the best fleadh possible.
