What is this paper about?

A law icon saying Disability Services Act 1986

The Disability Services Act 1986 is a law.

A government building. There is also a group of people with their hands raised, pointing at themselves.

It explains what services the Government can provide for people with disability.

In this paper we call it the Act.

An icon of the new act.

We want to make a new law to replace the Act.

In this paper we call it the new Act.

A person pointing at you, with a speech bubble with a question mark inside it.

We want to hear what you think we should include in the new Act.

The new Act will also include:

A person thinking. Above is an icon of a group of people with a question mark above.

  • who the services are for

Two people looking over a document. Above is a services icon.

  • how the services should work.

A person pointing at you. They have a speech bubble with a tick in it.

We also need your help to make sure we use the right words.
