I, Alan H O'Callaghan, wish to register my opposition to the ARA Application for an Exemption from the DDA Accessible Transport Standards. I have only, at this late stage, become aware of the Application and have not read it in full, but what I have read raises concerns that the gains made by people with disabilities on the issues of accessible public over a long period are under threat of being eroded away. In registering this objection, I wish to inform the Commission of my intention to further study the ARA Application for an Exemption and make a more detailed response.
