Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health

Joint Meeting of the Joint Committee on Employment Affairs and Social Protection, Joint Committee on Education and Skills and Joint Committee on Health
Supports for People with Disabilities: Discussion (Resumed)

12:00 pm

Ms Patsy Carr:

In respect of one aspect of the Deputy's question, as I said the rehabilitative training scheme has been in place since 2017. The income disregard piece has almost been finalised.

Discussions are ongoing with the HSE on finalising it, but the Department also wants to be consistent with what is done in the Department of Employment Affairs and Social Protection. I think that is what requires legislation.
