'No fares' protest begins at CIE

Workers in Bus Eireann, Iarnrod Eireann and Dublin Bus are refusing to collect fares from passengers today as part of their campaign against the Government's plans to break up CIE and privatise 25% of Dublin Bus services.

Instead of a ticket, passengers with the three CIE companies will receive an information leaflet outlining the pitfalls of the Government's plans.
