The Government is seeking to eliminate any cross-over and duplication of rural transport services as part of plans to overhaul the sector.

More than €200m is spent each year by State bodies providing services such as school buses and non-emergency health care transport.

A new committee is being set up to oversee the integration of services and to ensure there is better and smarter use of public transport vehicles.

The Minister for Public and Commuter Transport, Alan Kelly, has said the measures will lead to the creation of more and improved rural transport services.
