Explanatory Memorandum to Disability Discrimination (Northern Ireland) Order 2006

Article 7: Application of sections 19 to 21 of the 1995 Act to transport vehicles

29.Article 7 replaces the existing exclusion of transport services from sections 19 to 21 of the DDA with a more precise exclusion, relating only to transport services consisting of the provision and use of a vehicle.  It also confers a regulation-making power to enable such services to be brought within the scope of those sections (which make it unlawful to discriminate against a disabled person in the provisions of goods, facilities and services).  This will enable the exclusion to be narrowed or removed in whole or in part, or in relation to different transport vehicles at different times.
