Royal Commission into Violence, Abuse, Neglect and Exploitation of People with Disability: final report
Overview
The Royal Commission into Violence, Abuse, Neglect and Exploitation of People with Disability has made 222 recommendations on how to improve laws, policies, structures and practices to ensure a more inclusive and just society that supports the independence of people with disability and their right to live free from violence, abuse, neglect and exploitation.
The final report consists of 12 Volumes, plus an additional introductory volume, which includes the Chair’s foreword, the Commission's vision for an inclusive Australia, an executive summary, and the full list of recommendations. All volumes of the final report are available in various accessible formats.
The Royal Commission has also published a brief guide to the final report. This guide explains how information is organised. It is for a broad audience, including people with disability, their families and carers, other members of the Australian community, disability advocates, service providers and people looking to quickly find the information they need.
Additionally, the Royal Commission has published a brochure called Listening to First Nations people with disability. This brochure describes what the Commission heard from First Nations people with disability and their families and communities about the issues and challenges they face. It also describes some of the changes needed to create an Australia where First Nations people with disability are included.
