Joint Oireachtas Committee on Disability Matters

A Rights-Based Approach and Disability Legislation: National Disability Authority

Dr. Rosalyn Tamming:

Part 2 of the Disability Act 2005 is very linked to parts of the EPSEN Act. We and others had called for them to be reviewed in tandem. This might still be a possibility but any changes in the EPSEN Act will have an impact on Part 2 and vice versa. They were designed at the time to be strongly linked and perhaps the issue still exists.
