It is estimated that national economies lose around five to seven per cent of GDP when people with disabilities do not have equal access to economic opportunities and are left behind. Therefore, investing in the disability sector is beneficial not just to that country and to the people in that country but it is of benefit, as I have indicated, to the security and stability of our region and, ultimately, to Australia.

Our economic stability is furthered if every person, irrespective of their ability or disability, can make a concrete contribution so that they can have access to education and employment opportunities so that they can enjoy fruitful lives and make a good contribution so that they can overcome their difficulties and participate fully in their communities.
