That is the only way to describe the case of a disabled polytech student forced to piss into a bowl in the corner of his classroom because Unitec had not made proper provisions for wheelchair-bound students:
A disabled polytechnic student has been forced to urinate into a bowl in the corner of a classroom because his wheelchair did not fit in the toilet.This is humiliating and degrading and people should not have to put up with it. It's also illegal. The Human Rights Act outlaws discrimination on the grounds of disability, while the Building Act and Building Code require all public buildings to have proper facilities to ensure that they can be used by the disabled. Those facilities include basics such as toilets. Unitec is reportedly fixing its building, but the question needs to be asked: why are the disabled still being publicly humiliated 15 years after the HRA was passed?[...]
The student cannot access the bathroom on the first floor as his wheelchair is too wide. On Tuesday he was left no choice but to look for a corner of the classroom he was in and was passed a bowl to urinate in.
Classmates had been carrying the student and his wheelchair up the stairs to attend lessons.
