The point is that the rights of people with disabilities are sacrosanct and must always be met. We did a report on this, which we published last week. We addressed it in the Dáil. People with a disability have an absolute right to insist the taxi or public service vehicle that comes for them can carry them and meet their needs. I know Deputy Ó Cuív is not suggesting otherwise but a core part of our democratic transport system is that everybody gets a service.
