No. We are discussing people's rights. I am not saying that if we had a more diverse Seanad, a disabled person would be here to talk about this issue. No one would be obliged to do that. I do not talk about everything related to LGBT people. However, if we are to live by that adage, "Nothing about us without us", we need to take a serious look at diversity in this Chamber and among Senators.
