asked the Minister for Education whether he is aware that a school teacher is in irregular employment as a part-time bus driver of the school bus service in the Gweedore-Falcarragh districts, County Donegal, and thus deprives local bus drivers of their normal employment; and if he will take steps to see that this unfair competition is stopped at once.

I understand that the service in question is for the transport of children to secondary schools in Derrybeg and Falcarragh. My function in regard to any such service is limited solely to the issue of a licence for the conveyance of children to school under Section 93 (2) of the Road Traffic Act, 1933. I have, therefore, no function in relation to the matters raised by the Deputy.
