Joint Oireachtas Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform, and Taoiseach

Disabled Drivers and Disabled Passengers Scheme: Discussion

Mr. Ger Deering:

Like most things they vary.

Many local authorities have done a lot of work in recent years to try to make footpaths more accessible by dishing footpaths and putting markings at crossings. Another issue that has arisen is where we see that sometimes people insensitively put out things like sandwich boards, signs or other things in the way of people. People do not think and they need to think more carefully, whether that is personally or on the part of officials or people working in those areas. They always need to think of universal access and design.
