Joint Oireachtas Committee on Disability Matters

Employment and the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities: Discussion

Mr. Stephen Coates:

Towards what Mr. Le Roux said about the one wish thing, the risk of losing disability payments is very high. For example, if you earn more than €400 in one week, you lose your disability payments for two years. That is a scary thing for someone with disabilities.

On what Mr. Le Roux said about partnerships, my hope is, once I get my business started, to come back to the CRC and offer partnerships. I will be someone who is giving back to the course.

I do not know if that is good or bad, but it is just something I hope to do.
