“The Council will play an important role in helping to drive the implementation of the overarching National Disability Strategy 2010-20,” she said.
“It will also look at reforms in disability employment and carer support, and the full roll-out of the National Disability Insurance Scheme, including the interfaces with mainstream services.”
“Members represent every state and territory as well as business and the disability and carer sector, and advocates.
“I will co-chair the Council with Ms Keran Howe, who is well respected as a strong advocate in the sector and who has lived experience,” she said.
The Council will meet formally at least twice a year and establish working groups and community consultations as needed.
