165 Deputy Richard Bruton asked the Minister for Social and Family Affairs her views on introducing a system whereby all people who have a significant disability could be recognised and provided with a smart card which could act as a passport to different entitlements across the tax, health, social welfare and other service systems and would facilitate easy access and make it simple for private sector agencies to offer concessions; if she will arrange to study systems in other countries where this type of recognition has been provided; and if she will make a statement on the matter.
