‹ Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - School Transport Service. Kenagh pupils’ withheld bus tickets
Summary
Tickets were temporarily withheld from concessionary passengers over vehicle licensing and insurance issues, which the Minister said had been resolved.
asked the Minister for Education the reason for withholding tickets for the school bus in respect of a number of pupils attending the primary school at Kenagh, County Longford.
Comment on this
The children from whom tickets were withheld for a short period were concessionary fare-paying passengers. This action was necessitated by difficulties related to the licensing and insurance of the vehicle in regard to the numbers which it would carry—difficulties which I understand have now been overcome.
