Joint Oireachtas Committee on Disability Matters

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

Mr. Anthony Redmond:

Regarding losing your money and those sorts of things, after the age of 18, for some reason, the payment of disability money gets cut. This is the situation for me. It is then necessary to fight for your money and benefits. I would like to see that changing. When people have been getting money to live independently and to start their lives, it takes a long process to get back to where they were after the money is cut. This is one point I am thinking of.
