Work is still be doing done to recruit custodial staff to manage the cleaning of the province’s school buses.
Several new buses have been purchased for the province to use, and government hopes to have them ready for the road as soon as possible.
NAPE represents many of the bus operators across the province. President Jerry Earle says he can’t comment on the entirety of operators in the province because in some areas the service is contracted out.
He says progress is being made to get the appropriate number of staff in place.
From the updates Earle has received, he says some staff have been put in place, and there are a limited number of areas still in the process of recruiting.
