not apply to discrimination against a person on the ground of impairment in

the person’s impairment, the person requires the service to be performed
or the facility to be made available in a special manner that without
unjustifiable hardship —
(a)
cannot be provided by the person providing the service or making the facility
available; or

cannot be provided by the person providing the service or making the facility
available except on more onerous terms.
