2006 Report: Compliance with Part 5 of the Disability Act 2005
The Disability Act 2005 (Part 5) obliges public bodies to as far as practicable take all reasonable measures to support and promote the employment of people with disabilities, and, unless there are good reasons for not doing so, to reach a target 3% of employees with disabilities. These new legal obligations took effect for the first time for the year 2006. Under the Disability Act, the National Disability Authority reports on achievement of these obligations across the public service. The NDA's report is based on reports it in turn receives from Monitoring Committees in each Government Department who oversee the public bodies under them.
The National Disability Authority’s report in respect of employment of people with disabilities in the public service in 2006 was presented to the Minister for State for Disability and Mental Health, Jimmy Devins TD in November 2007. The report is in two parts. The main part is based on the narrative returns received. The second part of the report (Appendix 1) contains the statistical tables and commentary on these figures.
