Meeting: 11/10/2016 - Central Area Committee (Item 12)

Motion in the name of Councillor Janice Boylan

That this Committee calls on the Minister for Transport and Dublin Bus to train their drivers in basic first aid.  This follows on from the untimely death of a local resident who choked to death on a 46A bus.  The family, in particular Seamas’s daughters Joanna and Rachel are adamant that he could have been saved had the protocol for drivers included basic first aid training.
