Support for upcoming national disability parking scheme
Posted
by DPS
A national parking scheme for people with disability is a step closer following the release of a summary of consultations on the proposed scheme which endorses the Rudd Government’s plan for the national scheme.
A new national disability parking permit design will be rolled out by July 2010, and discussions with the states and territories and disability and medical groups are continuing to determine the final eligibility and concessions of the national scheme.
The final scheme will be agreed on this year and will deliver a more consistent system for the estimated 900,000 disability parking permit holders across Australia.
