There has been discussion about the term "life limiting" being ableist and exclusionary. Do either of the witnesses know if preferred language is emerging within the disabled people's organisations or the disabled community, in Ireland or globally, for an alternative term that might be perceived as less ableist? Do they know of an alternative way to discuss that which is currently emerging within the disabled sector?
