Minister urged to solve Sligo school bus debacle before September

The Education Minister is facing calls to ensure that there are adequate supports put in place to ensure every child in Sligo who needs a bus ticket regardless of eligibility gets one.

Last year, parents were left waiting five months before getting a ticket with some children not receiving a ticket until January.

Local Fianna Fail Cllr Paul Taylor says every effort must be made to ensure the same won't happen again this year.

He believes that the ball needs to get rolling now so that its sorted by September:
