Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 1 December 2004
220 Mr. Kehoe asked the Minister for Education and Science the person responsible for transporting persons (details supplied) to school; the reason the school bus does not drop them off at the school; the person who is liable for the children during these journeys; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [31658/04]
View answerThe pupils referred to by the Deputy in the details supplied are dropped off at the promenade. My Department has been informed by the relevant vocational education committee that the promenade is the official set-down point for post-primary schools in the town.
My Department understands that the parents have a private transport arrangement in place to transfer their children from the official set down point to the school in question. My Department has no involvement in this private arrangement.
