An application for school transport under the terms of my Department's School Transport Scheme for Children with Special Educational Needs was received for the child in question in May 2014.
The Special Transport Grant has been sanctioned with effect from the commencement of the 2014/15 school year.
This grant is payable at the end of each school year upon receipt of the appropriate information from the family provided there is no change in the child's current circumstances. The full terms of the Scheme are available on my Department's website and are applied equitably on a national basis.
