Bus Éireann faces charges over school bus crash

BUS ÉIREANN will face charges as a result of the fatal Navan bus crash which claimed the lives of five schoolgirls in Co Meath earlier this year.

Gardaí have said the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) has instructed them to bring summary charges against the owners of the bus. The driver will not be prosecuted.

Bus Éireann will be asked to answer summary charges at Navan District Court level on a date which has yet to be decided.
