Bus Éireann which operates the school transport scheme on behalf of my Department has advised that the family in question were late in submitting both their application and payment details.

Unfortunately, by the time the details were received the service was operating to capacity in that all of the seats had been allocated.

The family should continue to liaise with their local Bus Éireann office in Waterford (Tel: 051 873401) as seats may become available during the course of the current school year.
