Deputy Martin Browne asked the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport if his attention has been drawn to an instance in which a parent and a child with autism who had attended a hospital appointment were prevented from boarding a bus from Limerick to Dublin due to the fact they were only destined for Roscrea, County Tipperary, and not Dublin; if his attention has been drawn to the difficulties that parent has also encountered in getting a seat on a Dublin to Limerick bus at Roscrea; if there is a policy to give preference to passengers travelling the full journey of a bus service; and his plans to give parents of children with special needs priority access to transport services.
