Disability Access and Inclusion Plans

The Hon. K.J. MAHER (Leader of the Opposition) (14:23): Supplementary arising directly from the answer given: for agencies that aren't going to meet the requirement to have the final plan finished within two weeks and therefore have already published draft plans, do those agencies require an exemption from the minister for their own regulations?

The Hon. J.M.A. LENSINK (Minister for Human Services) (14:24): I am not sure what the exact mechanism is in relation to them not meeting the time frame, but we have been advised that some organisations may not. If you like, it's a bit of a publication requirement because, once I have received them all, they will then be published, so we really would like to have them all meet the time frame so that they can be included in that first report. But we have been advised of those agencies that may not be able to. It is a living document and we appreciate that some local councils and some government agencies may have needed a bit more time than others.
