Today the opposition notes the tabling of draft disability standards relating to access to premises for buildings. The coalition supports the intent of this document, which is to improve access to public buildings for people living with a disability. The coalition looks forward to examining the detail of the premises standards and the impacts that the standards could have on people with a disability, businesses and industry. We will also be closely following the committee process and will be interested to see the outcome of the consultations of the Standing Committee on Legal and Constitutional Affairs. I thank the House.
