John Halligan: 'If I had my way all children, eligible or otherwise, would get school transport'

Minister of State for Training and Skills John Halligan has vowed to continue to fight for an extra €4m for the school bus scheme to continue to include concessionary children.

Mr Halligan explained to RTÉ radio’s Today with Miriam O’Callaghan show that concessionary children are pupils who get a seat on a bus even if they are not eligible, because there is a vacant space.
