It is actually happening in Donegal, but Tipperary is the worst served county. Dublin is the best served. One can see that urban centres have a different profile, and I understand that. However, people with disabilities are spread throughout the country and there are very big differences in availability. I am not saying that there is an easy solution to this, but I wish to draw attention to areas which the Department may not even consider to need taxis. If something is not supplied then people will not use it, because it is not available to use.
