Chamber Co-chair, Monique Leith, has met with Hon Carmel Sepuloni, Minister for Disability Issues, to advocate for much-needed accessibility legislation, drawing on her lived experiences as a business owner and industry leader.
Accessibility is not just about creating equity for people with disabilities. Over half a million New Zealanders encounter access barriers in their role as family caregivers of young children, elderly, or disabled family members. The Government and all the Parliamentary parties are committed to accelerate accessibility through new legislation and regulations in the next two years. Currently, no laws or framework exists. Monique met with the Minister as part of Access Alliance to feed into the new law framework.
