Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government
Universal Design In Building: Discussion
Ms Joan Carthy:
Our information to date, and what we are being told at most of the steering groups, is that they do not have that information to hand and they do not have the resources. We would think that when the assessment of need comes around again, it should be in that, and maybe it will be. We met with the Minister of State, Deputy Peter Burke, a couple of months ago and we spoke about this. He was surprised and said he would push out to the local authorities to make sure that work was done. That is where we are at the moment and that is the information we are receiving from the committees every time the question is asked.
