Date Time Inaccessible housing – time to end a human tragedy The ACT Council of Social Service (ACTCOSS) has joined with Rights & Inclusion Australia to welcome the ACT Government’s decision to support the inclusion of mandatory provisions for Universal Design in the National Construction Code (NCC). The two organisations believe this is a great opportunity for the Australian Government to demonstrate leadership and make a positive response to the findings of the Aged Care Royal Commission by ensuring that future housing can sustain people into old age, as well as provide an adequate stock of accessible housing for people with disability across Australia.
