Legal Aid
Dail Éireann — 2022-10-20
============================================================

Pauline Tully (SF), Cavan-Monaghan

What are the Minister's plans to increase the financial and human resources available to the Legal Aid Board? I ask this in particular to enable persons with disabilities to vindicate their rights in court in view of the fact that the Assisted Decision-Making (Capacity) Bill will be commenced in November 2022, and for the Minister to realise her obligations under the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities, UNCRPD.
