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:
Overhead MER cables brought down in Laxey
Health minister: 'Manx Care 2.0 is right around the corner'
BMA ballot for industrial action delayed 'as long as possible'
Commissioners want 'professional assessment' on importance of Westhill House
