Joint statement: Disability Representative Organisations
Disability Representative Organisations stand united in our reiteration to government of nothing about us without us.
While Minister Mark Butler noted nothing about us without us in his speech at the National Press Club yesterday, the announcements made by the Minister came as a surprise to the disability community and representative organisations. This has created further uncertainty for our community.
We are heartened by the Government's continued commitment to the NDIS, which has changed the lives of people with disability around Australia. However, we are collectively disappointed that the government chose not to engage with the disability community about their announcement.
