The free schoolbooks for primary school children scheme is working very well across the country. It is taking a lot of pressure off hard-pressed families in every constituency. The problem now is getting children to school in order that they can take full advantage of this scheme. As we know, the national school bus transport scheme has been under a lot of pressure in the last couple of years. A review of the scheme is ongoing, although it seems to have been going on forever. When does the Taoiseach expect the school bus review to be completed in order that we can get a bus transport system that is fit for purpose and get our children sent to school safely?
