The Irish Human Rights and Equality Commission, IHREC, has appointed a disability advisory committee under section 9 of the Irish Human Rights and Equality Commission Act 2014. When it was established, it had regard to the Disability Bill 2016 of its own volition. The disability advisory committee is made up of 14 members, three of whom are commissioners, being the chair, the vice chair and the chief commissioner, as per the requirements of the commission's founding legislation. Of the other 11 members, nine are persons with a disability and have been appointed following an open recruitment process.
