, Limerick East): The study referred to by the Deputy is a cost-benefit analysis of the personal assistance service commissioned by my Department on the advice of the Advisory Group on Personal Assistance Services for People with Physical Disabilities. The report is available to interested parties as part of the process of developing the personal assistance service. I am arranging to have a copy of the study sent to the Deputy.
