Cap. 210 Art. 21Provision of facilities for persons with serious disability.

(1) The Minister may provide, or make arrangements for the provision by any government department or the Corporation or otherwise of, facilities for enabling registered persons, who by reason of the nature or severity of their disability are unlikely either at any time or for a prolonged period of time to be able otherwise to obtain employment or to undertake work on their own account (because they would be unlikely to be able to compete therein on terms comparable as respects earnings and security with those enjoyed by persons engaged therein who are not subject to disability), to obtain employment or to undertake such work under special conditions, as well as facilities for the training of such persons for the employment or work in question.

(2) While any person with disability is availing himself of any of the facilities provided under sub-article (1), such person shall be under adequate supervision.

(3) The Minister may defray, or contribute towards, expenses incurred -

(a) in the provision of any facilities as are referred to in sub-article (1); and and may also to or in respect of such persons, grant such further assistance, in cash or in kind, as he may from time to time determine.

(4) Any assistance granted under sub-article (3) shall be subject to such conditions as the Minister may impose either generally or in respect of any particular person.
