Joint Oireachtas Committee on Disability Matters

Living with a Disability: Discussion (Resumed)

Ms Niamh Kilcawley:

People need to face the fact that Ireland is not equal place for disabled people at the moment and for it to become equal then change needs to happen. We cannot wait 20 years or more for that to happen, or to even think about it happening. If there is co-operation, and if people prioritises the disabled community and its needs, then it could be done. I thank everybody who has supported me to get me to where I am. I wish to say thank you so much to my SNAs, my school, Mr. Ciarán Delaney, my parents and to everybody.
