Absolutely. Our role, as the Deputy has quite rightly said, is as a fulcrum to ensure the rights of persons with disabilities are upheld. We absolutely have a central role in ensuring there are co-ordinated responses throughout the Government in identifying needs and ensuring those needs are met in the range of Government services.
