Joint Oireachtas Committee on Education and Youth
School Transport Scheme: Discussion
2:00 am
Ms Sarah Heneghan:
Unfortunately, the application process at the minute determines that you do have to say whether you are male or female. The reason, which Bus Éireann can confirm, is obviously the calculation done that would have a female bypass a boys' school. Obviously, these types of situations will arise more often. The case in question is not one we are aware of but we will look into it specifically if the Deputy gives us more details.
