Questions

I refer to a question without notice about young people with disabilities housed in aged-care facilities

(1)  Is the Disability Services Commission implementing measures to identify those young people and connect them to the National Disability Insurance Scheme?

(2)  If no to (1), why not?

(3)  If yes to (1), what are those measures?

816. Hon ALISON XAMON to the Leader of the House representing the Minister for Community Services:

I refer to state government funding of homelessness services, in particular short-term accommodation facilities.

(1)  Is there a requirement within existing procurement processes stipulating that services must not turn people away on the basis of their sexual orientation?

(2)  If no to (1), will the government consider including this as a requirement in future procurement processes?
