Joint Oireachtas Committee on Public Service Oversight and Petitions

Mobility and Motorised Transport Allowances: Discussion

5:50 pm

Mr. Michael McCabe:

I believe the money will be ring-fenced but if you were a person coming up to the age of 16 and you were looking forward to getting this money, how would you feel. I would be very angry and annoyed.

The other point is as Mr. Lee said, that it will be impossible to do what they want to do with the €10 million. It has to go to the individual, not organisations, not even my own organisation. CIL does provide transport but we do not interfere with the mobility allowance.
