asked the Minister for Education if she will clarify whether parents who are holders of medical cards have free transport for their children to the nearest (a) secondary post-primary school, (b) technical post-primary school and (c) community post-primary school, when no such school is in their catchment area.
Written Answers. - School Transport.
834.
Parents who hold medical cards and whose children are eligible under the post-primary school transport scheme, may be excused the post-primary school transport contribution if their children are attending their appropriate post-primary centre. A centre is not deemed to be inappropriate merely because it does not contain a particular category of post-primary school.
