The Accessibility for New Zealanders Bill is aimed at addressing the accessibility barriers faced by disabled people, tāngata whaikaha, and others, so they can live independently and participate fully in all areas of life.
EWCT put forward a written and oral submission asking that the Bill redresses the many inequalities facing people living with epilepsy so that there is an improved quality of life for many.
