Is there a better way of monitoring accessibility? We hear reports but who is in charge? Who is proactive in getting transparency on what is happening and reporting on it? On an advocate for change, many people come to me with issues relating to disability and I often think there is an absence of an advocate to carry the flag for them. Do we need a better advocacy service? Do we need more transparency regarding people who are refused or cannot get to transport? The more information that can be put in the public domain in respect of that matter without compromising people's personal details, the better. It is hugely important to have such public accountability.

How will the relevant EU directives and regulations apply in the future? What additional work is needed in that regard?
