Hello



FYI below about an opportunity to give feedback about the taxi reforms.



Trudy



Urgent.

A Victorian Parliamentary Committee is reviewing the proposed taxi reforms.



They are looking for representatives of people with a disability for their 
views on the taxi reforms.



The Economy and Infrastructure Committee is currently conducting an Inquiry 
into the Commercial Passenger Vehicle Industry Bill 2017 .



You can view the Bill at: http://bit.ly/2rpadJd



There is no mention of disability, disability access or any compliance with 
anti-discrimination law in this bill. They are saying that this will come later 
but you have to ask if it does, will it be a poor cousin of the original act, 
an afterthought?



Hearings are being held next Tuesday 23 May 2017 from 9am-5pm, and Wednesday 24 
May 2017  evening from 6.30 - 9pm.



If you are available to attend to give a view on the legislation, please 
contact:
