Membership of that committee is drawn from a lot of different organisations representing people with disabilities. I do not want to infringe their privacy in any way. They are entitled to some sort of protection.

In response to Deputy Catherine Murphy, they are drawing everything into one body and one report, and it will be published as soon as possible. I need persuasion in respect of regional balance.

The Deputy also referred to taxis. There is a commercial element to that issue. I tend to think that taxis will come if there is an appetite for them. That is not happening in Tipperary and Donegal.
