67. To ask the Minister for Children, Equality, Disability, Integration and Youth if his Department has developed a data strategy that will support the collection and use of data to identify outcomes for persons with disabilities when accessing services and programmes in line with action 3D of the Mid-Term Review of the National Disability Inclusion Strategy; if not, the timeframe for when this will be developed; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

Preparatory work has commenced for the delivery of Action 3D. My Department is developing an internal equality data group with a view to assessing and improving the data collected across all the current equality strategies. In addition, the National Disability Authority (NDA) has begun a disability data audit. The data audit is intended to cover all available disability data resources covering national statistics, research databases and administrative data resources. Both of these processes will feed into the delivery of Action 3D.
