To help people give their information to the Disability Royal Commission* a submission form was designed.

DANA explained to the Commissioners that there were problems with their submission form:

  • the questions were too long and complicated
  • not all questions aligned with best trauma-informed practice
  • the ordering of the questions could be improved
  • the need for an Easy Read version of the submissions form

Changes were then made to the submission form and it is available on the Disability Royal Commission website- https://disability.royalcommission.gov.au/

But further changes can be made. We were asked to suggest how the submission form can be further improved. If you would like to contribute your ideas, you can do so at the website address mentioned above.

*The Royal Commission into Violence, Abuse, Neglect and Exploitation of People with Disability was established in April 2019.
