Text

Thank you, Minister. I respect your response. The level of significant distress that the matter causes parents cannot go understated in this House. Minister, being solution-focused and working together, will you commit to a conversation with community transport to potentially find some kind of answer? Will you engage again with the Education Authority to make sure that, next year, this does not happen again?
