INQUIRY INTO AGEING AND DISABILITY
The Senate Community Affairs References Committee will inquire into access to planning options and services for people with disability to ensure their continued quality of life as they and their carers age. The inquiry also aims to identify any inadequacies in the choice and funding of planning options currently available to people ageing with disability and their carers. The Committee is seeking written submissions by 28 May 2010 for report by 2 September 2010.
