I wish to again raise the school transport scheme. I have made a number of representations to Bus Éireann regarding the efficiency of some of the routes. We are getting to that busier time of the year when the demand for it is going to build up. Unfortunately, the responses from Bus Éireann are weak if not delayed indefinitely. They are not receptive enough to the voices of public representatives expressing the opinions of their constituents. I call for a debate on Bus Éireann's service and potentially reviewing that to examine efficiencies that we, the publicly representatives on the ground, through listening to our constituents, have identified and are able to point towards. It would lead to the delivery of a better service for students.
