Part of our statutory remit is to provide information on the rights and entitlements of people with disabilities. Our seven disability factsheets provide a quick overview of public services and supports for people with disabilities in a number of areas; including social welfare and HSE payments, health services, training and employment supports and income tax. You can find more detailed information in Entitlements for people with disabilities (pdf).
These factsheets were published in 2009 and all are free
of charge. They are available to download below. Printed
versions may be available from your local Citizens
Information Centre.
