Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government
Housing for People with a Disability: Discussion (Resumed)
Ms Caroline Timmons:
Last year, 1,457 people who have a disability were accommodated in social housing. Obviously, it is a difficult area for everybody but we are working on it. We must not lose sight of the fact that the strategies we prepare and try to implement have an effect. We are doing things better in the area of disability. I do not concur with the Senator on that point. I believe we are doing quite a lot.
