Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport and Communications
School Transport Scheme: Bus Éireann
3:15 pm
Ms Andrea Keane:
The figure has ranged from €4 million to €9 million over the last period. The fluctuations are linked to the capital investment programme within the scheme. We have two significant capital reinvestments for school transport at the moment. A significant IT system that costs approximately €2 million is being funded through this facility. We are also looking at purchasing school buses for the provision of direct school services.
