My Department has consulted with Bus Éireann which is responsible for the operation of the school transport scheme.

Bus Éireann is satisfied, in so far as possible, that the pick up point is safe. I should also say that it is the responsibility of parents to ensure that their children are brought to and collected from bus pick up points.

The children referred to by the Department will have to continue to make their way to the designated pick up point.
