I propose to take Questions Nos. 296 and 334 together.

Reporting on the compliance by public bodies with the requirements of Part 5 of the Disability Act 2005 in respect employment of people with disabilities is the responsibility of the National Disability Authority. Both the 2009 Report and the most recent one, that for 2010, are available on the NDA website, www.nda.ie
