FG, Labour to pledge Disability Bill changes

FINE GAEL and Labour are expected to pledge tonight that they will "fundamentally alter" the Government's Disability Bill if returned to power.

In doing so, they could secure a sizeable vote from the disability lobby, which would boost their chances of forming an alternative government.

The bill was passed in the Dáil last month to the frustration of campaign groups, who argued it was a badly flawed piece of legislation.
