Disability Royal Commission call to action

December 2023

CID calls on the NSW Government to act comprehensively on the report of the Disability Royal Commission (DRC).

We see this as a once in a lifetime opportunity to transform the place of people with disability in society – from exclusion, neglect and abuse to inclusion, respect and access to the right supports.

This call to action is focused on the NSW government. The Australian Government also needs to take strong action in response to the DRC report.

For more information call us on 1800 424 065 or email info@cid.org.au.
