Written answers

Minister of State at the Department of Education and Skills

The data referred to by the Deputy relates to 2008.

Bus Éireann has advised that the level of detailed information sought by the Deputy cannot be compiled within the required timeframe.

In this regard I have asked Bus Éireann to forward the information directly to the Deputy.
