The deadline for the public consultation on the Green Paper on Disability Reform is being extended to 31st July 2024 in response to requests from individuals, Disabled Person’s Organisations and disability groups to have further time to make their submissions.
The Green Paper, published in September 2023, is a discussion/consultation document on how best to support people with disabilities into the future.
Its purpose is to start a structured conversation on the future of long-term disability payments.
In extending the deadline for submissions, Minister Humphreys said:
“I know from engaging with the disability sector that they want more time to engage in this important consultation process. This extension will allow that and I encourage all interested parties to make submissions and express their views.”
