I was going to raise the issue of self-employment. Even in terms of this proposed payment I do not see how self-employment and entrepreneurship among people with disabilities will be catered for. Similar to the working age payment we do need a real-time aspect. We need Revenue to speak to the Department of Social Protection. In the case of self-employment it would be year's end before people can report.
