To take that up further, one point particular raised by the DPO Network is the issue of employment. I think Ireland has the worst rate of employment for disabled people in Europe. I think the Disability Federation of Ireland flagged in our previous session the prospect that the use of AI in, for example, scanning CVs could have results where AI just puts disability in the reject pile. Are the witnesses concerned that this will exacerbate discrimination against disabled people in employment opportunities? Are they aware of anything like this happening in Ireland yet?
