Proposed ratification of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities Alternative formats available on request to PIAC - Contact PIAC
PIAC provided a short response to the Joint Standing Committee on Treaties (JSCOT) inquiry into the ratification by Australia of this Convention. PIAC supports the ratification of the Convention as a matter of urgency, seeing this as an important (time-limited) opportunity to be directly involved in the establishment of the Treaty Body, including potentially nominating an Australian expert to that body.
