Disability Royal Commission Interim report

The report sets out what the Royal Commission has done in its first 15 months, the cut-off point being 31 July 2020.  The report says people with disability experience attitudinal, environmental, institutional and communication barriers to achieving inclusion within Australian society.  It shows that a great deal needs to be done to ensure that the human rights of people with disability are respected and that Australia becomes a truly inclusive society.

The report details the experiences of many people with disability as well as the reasons they are exposed to violence, abuse, neglect and exploitation.

The report is available for download in a variety of formats.
