Gerry Adams (Louth, Sinn Fein) | Oireachtas source

The Taoiseach says the Government has scrapped the mobility allowance scheme and the motorised transport grants scheme because they are illegal. Why are they illegal? They are illegal because they discriminate against a section of citizens who are entitled to these schemes but are denied access to them and have been denied access to them by successive Governments. Fianna Fáil was in power for most of the 13 years that they have been illegal, but the Government has had two years to sort the issue out. It has been doing the very same as Fianna Fáil, which is discriminating against citizens.
