Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport
National Transport Authority: Chairperson Designate
1:30 pm
Mr. Fred Barry:
There is a lot in that. I will arrange for something to come back to the committee about the matter. I will add to what Senator Dolan said at the beginning. The establishment Act for the NTA specifically puts an onus on the NTA to take full account of disability issues and provide for disability. I hear Senator Dolan loud and clear that what we have at the moment perhaps falls short of where we need to be. I will keep that in mind as we go forward and, as the Chairman suggested, I will arrange for the NTA to revert to the committee on the policy issues involved.
