520 _aThe expected deluge of discrimination cases occasioned under Part III of the Disability Discrimination Act 1995 (DDA) since it came into force in October 2004 has not materialised. Looks at the only two cases that have received full public attention so far: "Roads v Central Trains Ltd" ([2004 EWCA Civ 1541) and "Ross v Ryanair Ltd" ([2004] EWCA Civ 1751. The dearth of Part III cases disguises the fact that the DDA is being transformed in the courts on a daily basis e.g. "Freer Bouskell v Brewster"(unreported 3 December 2003) where an employee suffering from claustrophobia was found to be disabled, but also could reflect the cost of litigation. The DDA 2005 will soon broaden the meaning of disability. Lists lessons to be learnt by service providers from the first year of Part III enforcement and reminds them of their statutory duties.
