Disability Discrimination Commissioner, Graeme Innes will be holding public
meetings around Australia to hear directly from people with disability who need
communication supports, or who have complex and multiple support needs, about
their experiences with the criminal justice system. The Commission is concerned
that people with disability who need communication supports or who have complex
and multiple support needs are not having their rights protected and are not
being treated equally in police stations, courts, prisons and juvenile justice
centres across Australia. This is happening to people with disability who are
victims of crime, accused of crimes, witnesses, defendants and offenders.
