DISABILITY CARE AND SUPPORT — PRODUCTIVITY COMMISSION
I have a supplementary question. In view of the Premier’s comments, will he accept calls from those very non-government organisations and people with disabilities that he has been talking about to immediately establish a community reference group in conjunction with the disability sector to advise him as he negotiates this national disability insurance scheme issue? Mr C.J. BARNETT
