The Equal Status Acts 2000 to 2008 prohibit discrimination on nine grounds including the disability ground. A person selling goods or providing services must do all that is reasonable to accommodate the needs of a person with a disability. They also lay down procedures which must be followed when making a claim of discrimination.
