It is all very well to talk about the future but the lifts are not working today. The infrastructure exists but if people cannot rely on it, disabled people are at a disadvantage. We are discussing the disadvantages that exist. Disabled people are put at a serious disadvantage when they cannot say for certain whether they will be able to turn up for work. I have more questions but I know I will have an opportunity to comment later.
