What the Deputy is seeing here is the transfer of matters relating to the Health Act 2005 to the Minister for Children, Equality, Disability, Integration and Youth. I take on board what the Deputy is saying. Whenever I talk about disability, I speak about it in the round. I agree with the Deputy that education, higher education and transport all have a role to play. There is not one Department that does not have a role to play when it comes to disability. That is why it is being moved to the Department for Children, Equality, Disability, Integration and Youth. Moving it to the Department responsible for equality is the baseline, person-centred approach. That is why it is mirrored to the old Act.
