Dublin Labour TD Sean Kenny and member of the Oireachtas Transport Committee has welcomed the confirmation by the Minister for Transport that increased steps have been taken to increase security coverage on board DART railway services and also at DART stations.

"Increased security measures have been needed in order to deal directly with different forms of anti-social behaviour and vandalism that were experienced in the last year. The increased security will be kept in place over the summer months and will be carried out in conjunction with the Gardai on an ongoing basis in order to protect DART passengers who rely on a safe train service."

"I warmly welcome this increased level of security. Anti-social behaviour has to be stopped, no matter where it occurs - it places the safety of people at risk and is a cause of inconvenience, worry and financial loss to communities."
