Committee on Budgetary Oversight

Post-Budget Engagement: Economic and Social Research Institute

Dr. Karina Doorley:

We have some analysis planned on disability for later this year. This is a work programme that we are doing with the Irish Human Rights and Equality Commission, IHREC. We are going to incorporate the cost of disability into these estimates and try to come up with a sensible way to account for the fact that those households have higher out-of-pocket costs than other households.

We are working on that.
