What a load of rubbish. Everyone knows that a compensation scheme in Ireland is a Santa Claus gig. How many claims arise from a bus accident? A lot more than the number of passengers on the bus. Same with train accidents. All claims against the State must be subject to legal oversight. Just look at the recent PUP fraud situation. Read yesterday's papers
That's what you get for voting FF FG , abuse
They the irish state is vermon
