Social Welfare Benefits
Dail Éireann — 2024-09-24
============================================================

Donnchadh Ó Laoghaire (SF), Cork South-Central

I will keep it short and sweet. We had a lot of discussion about the Green Paper and all that went with it. The Minister correctly identified that there were shortcomings in the approach outlined, however well-intentioned. However, there is a cost to disability that has long been identified in various reports. We need to come back to how that can be addressed. How does the Minister now propose to proceed in that regard?
