Okay, but I also know that the process of new committee, drafting and commenting on the statute and finally having a brand new law implies status quo for at least half a decade. Would be glad if proved wrong not verbally but factually.

George I can atleast say that now we know we are going towards a new Law. One barrier broken one step ahead. Let the committee do its best. They have plenty of material to work on. For the last 4 years consultations have been going on and recommendations have been going to the Ministry. If they take a lot of the suggestions in, we will have a good law. Once the draft is ready we will see it on the Ministry's website and we can then criticize it add to it or delete it. If it is not good enough we can restart the process. The disabled world has changed. Many people know their minds and rights and many people have a voice and know how to use it. Hopefully somebody with some sense has chosen the committee. I know that many thought they should be on the committee because they represented the so called National Organisations, its upto the Ministry to decide. Lets give the new committee a chance.
