Mr. David Conway:

We are already part of the Department of Social Protection free travel scheme. We are also participating in the student young adult card scheme, which gives a certain category and age category 50% off. We have, though, been excluded from the under-nines scheme, as the Deputy mentioned. We do not understand why. The technology, auditing systems and so on are there to include us. It certainly discriminates against certain parts of Ireland and young people, including Tralee.
