The pupil referred to in the details supplied resides 4.8 km from the school in question, and 1.4 km from the bus route serving the school. The pupil's family requested an extension of the school bus service. An extension may be approved on payment by the family of the cost involved. Bus Éireann, which administers the school transport scheme on behalf of my Department, has indicated that the cost of a payable extension for the pupil concerned is as set out in the details supplied by the Deputy.
