Rail Users Ireland is calling for pets to be banned from public transport during rush hour and other periods of high demand.
It comes after the NTA proposed allowing small dogs, cats and other small animals on buses, trains and Luas services, while larger dogs could also travel if they are kept on a lead and muzzled.
The group says allowing pets during busy periods could create problems for passengers and add to pressure on already crowded services.
The proposals have sparked debate around accessibility, safety and the practicalities of travelling with animals on public transport.
Mark Gleeson from Rail Users Ireland joined us on The Agenda this morning to explain why the group believes the proposed rules go too far and what changes it would like to see.
