Order of Business.
The issue raised by Senator White also struck me during the two weeks of euphoria we had before and during the Special Olympics. There is potential in an economic sense for those with disabilities. The norm of 3% was set for their participation in the public service some years ago and the private sector was to follow. County councils and others appear to feel it is too much trouble to implement this norm but that is not the case as there are jobs suited to many of those with disabilities.
