Description

This national policy calls for better legislation, better integration in the workforce and greater participation in the public administration for persons with disability.

It proposes measures that can provide a basis for a National Disability Strategy Framework.
These include better accessibility in public and private buildings, better qualified learning support assistants in schools, basic sign language skills for all educators, and sign interpretation during court proceedings.

It also calls for a national policy on the sexual expression of persons with disability and more support for their families.
