Disabled Drivers and Disabled Passengers Scheme: Discussion
Mr. Ger Deering:
It is discrimination. Sometimes discrimination can be justifiable if it is being said that a person has other means or reasons if there is a means test, for example. However, it is unreasonable discrimination in that if two people have the same need and the same level of disability for a different reason, it seems reasonable that they should be treated the same.
