"I would thank the Commissioner for her answer. My question in the first place concerns the opportunities the disabled have to take advantage of freedom of movement in Europe. It is quite an expensive business if you are to travel from Gothenburg to somewhere else in Europe on holiday or on a study visit if you are in a wheelchair and also need to have a personal assistant or carer with you in order to manage.
I am grateful for the fact that the Commission has adopted an action plan. It is of course a prerequisite, however, that there be financial resources and means of actually crossing the borders physically if you have a disability. It would be interesting to hear whether the Commission is also prepared to set aside financial resources for those who have disabilities, so that they too might venture further out into the world than merely to where their wheelchairs take them."@en1
