A local charity is welcoming efforts to bring the Disability Discrimination Act closer to implementation.
However, the Manx Foundation for the Physically Disabled also believes the move towards equal rights should have happened much sooner.
The act was passed by Tynwald in 2006, but has yet to be introduced.
Now off-Island consultants are looking into the likely cost and timescale of bringing it in.
Wheelchair user and foundation board member Kathryn Williams says it is a welcome move forward, but there's still a long way to go:
Manx Care interim operations director to leave next month
Almost 38,000 passengers used ferry services to travel to Island during TT
Decision over Peel telegraph poles "should still stand", says minister
43 babies born on Island in May
Inflation rate unchanged in May
