‹ Order of Business Health transport support Bill
Summary
Deputy Fitzpatrick asks when the Bill replacing mobility allowance with transport support for people with severe disabilities will be published; the Taoiseach expects it early in 2015.
I have been approached by the families of children with severe disabilities. The health (transport support) Bill will provide for a scheme to make individual payments to people with severe disabilities who cannot access public transport as a contribution towards their transport costs. When can we expect publication of this Bill?
