Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health

UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities: Discussion (Resumed)

9:00 am

Mr. Michael McCabe:

I would go a bit further than that. The area of disability has to come out of the Department of Health because it is not a health issue. If I am unwell, I will go to a doctor, but my disability is not a health issue. If we remove the area of disability from the Department of Health, it will solve a lot of problems.
