following on the release on 25 February of the final report of Patrick McClure's review into Australia's welfare system. The report has received a cautious, sometimes sceptical reception from the disability community (herehere and here).  

With this podcast, we hope to ensure that the debate has only begun and that equality continues to be the watchword for all future policy makers. 

Speakers:

  • Gabrielle Williams MP, Parliamentary Secretary to the Minister for Disabilities
  • Tony Clark, disabilities campaigner and candidate for Ringwood at the Victorian State election
  • Jen Hargrave from 'Women with Disabilities Victoria'.  She is Policy Officer at WDV and is responsible for writing submissions to the current Senate enquiry, Vic Royal Commission into Family Violence, and a Vic Ombudsman enquiry amongst other things.
