The motorised transport grant for disabled people has been closed to new applicants since the decision of the Ombudsman many years ago. I have continually raised this issue in the Dáil and have been continually promised that the Government was working on a scheme to either restore or replace that grant. Meanwhile the number of people who would qualify for it if it was in operation is increasing week by week. Can the Taoiseach give a definite timescale within which this will be either replaced or restored?
