I agree with the Minister that we need a joined-up approach and I hope we will move towards ratification of the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities, UNCPRD. That is crucial. I note that the Department of Employment Affairs and Social Protection has access to very important research that it has supported around those costs and that information could be shared with other Departments.
