I agree with Deputy Troy that we should write to the Minister. After all the work that had been put in reaching out to and liaising with the various groups, we published a very detailed report. When we expressed the importance of continuous follow-up, the Minister gave a commitment to examine the progress made. It sends the wrong signal when the Minister does not prioritise giving this committee a progress update on accessibility in our public transport system for persons with disabilities. The committee needs to make clear to him that it is the wrong signal. Given the commitment he gave, we should ask him if possible to rearrange his diary and give this matter priority.
