The Royal Commission into Violence, Abuse, Neglect and Exploitation of People with Disability has suspended public hearings, due to concerns about the spread of COVID-19 coronavirus.
That means the next three hearings, which were scheduled for March, April and May, have been postponed, and all community events cancelled, as well as face-to-face private submissions. You can still make a submission to the Royal Commission by phone, in writing or using an audio or video recording.
Read the media release on their website.
There is now a website specifically for West Australians with disability to find out about making submissions and connect with local advocacy groups.
