Vol. 472 No. 6
84 Miss M. Wallace asked the Minister for Arts, Culture and the Gaeltacht the implications, if any, for his Department of the report of the Commission on the Status of People with Disabilities; and if so, when he intends to commence addressing these implications. [23862/96]
This report has only recently been received and contains recommendations of major relevance to all Departments.
The Government has approved the establishment of an inter-departmental task force which will, inter alia, consider the implications of the commission's report for the various Departments and agencies involved. My colleague, the Minister for Equality and Law Reform, is proceeding with the arrangements for the establishment of the task force and my Department will co-operate fully with it.
