My final question relates to previous conversations the witnesses had with colleagues this morning, specifically with Deputy Ó Laoghaire. Mr. Hession acknowledged the language used in the Green Paper that states people at level 3 will have to engage. Why was that language chosen? It immediately changes the narrative relating to people with disabilities. It is not language I would have chosen. Will Mr. Hession comment on that please?
