School Transport
Dail Éireann — 2024-02-13
============================================================

Sorca Clarke (SF), Longford-Westmeath

The Minister is correct that the review has been extensive. That is one way to describe it. It has been going on since February 2021. The Minister said earlier that she would have the review published by the end of March. Does she envisage the report, and the review in its entirety, being published at that time?
The school transport system is quite unique in that parents, students and Deputies want it, but each of those moving parts also needs this to happen for a variety of reasons. If this review is to be published by the end of March, will she outline what impact she sees it having on 2024-25 school year applications?
