On 3 March Senator Fifield asked me a question in my then capacity as Minister representing the Minister for Families, Housing, Community Services and Indigenous Affairs. The question concerned the appointment of an ambassador for the 2010 International Day of People with Disability. I seek leave to incorporate in Hansard further information from the Minister for Families, Housing, Community Services and Indigenous Affairs, Ms Macklin.

Leave granted.

The document read as follows—

I do not endorse attempts at humour that ridicule or demean people with disability.

Ms Deveny is no longer an ambassador for International Day of People With Disability.
