The average full-time saving for a person with a disability moving into sustained employment is €10,660 per year, and this is why I said it would be self-financing. The Minister mentioned the Walk programme. There is an urgency regarding pilot programmes such as the Walk programme and, hopefully, the Minister will find in their favour and allow the approach they have taken away from disability towards ability as a model that needs to be followed. I urge the Minister to find in their favour quickly so there is no gap in services for some people. Young people with disabilities are excluded from the Youth Guarantee. Could the Minister give a commitment to examine this aspect, which may need only a minor change?
