This petition was submitted during the 2017 to 2019 Parliament
Rejected petition To guarantee the safe travel of school children.
Rejected on
I have witnessed children being left distressed with no means of travelling home safely due to bus drivers not following correct procedure.
Any child requiring to travel without a pass should be granted safe passage regardless of circumstance.
There are many instances of school teachers and staff having to pay from their own bank cards for the safe travel of school children due to the driver of the bus not issuing an Unpaid Fare Demand ticket.
The safety of our children travelling to and from school is paramount whilst parents are working and unable to to attend to amend the stated situation.
