The detailed analysis relating to changes in the 'Closed School Rule' has been initiated by Bus Éireann and will draw on the final data in relation to school transport requirements in September 2011. Given this fact, I do not expect to have the final details for some weeks yet.

These changes are not due to be implemented until September 2012 and as detailed consideration and assessment will be required it will be some time before this work is completed.
