Disability Access and Inclusion
Disability, Access, and Inclusion Plan
Under the Disability Inclusion Act 2018, all state and local government authorities are required to create and implement their own Disability Access and Inclusion Plans (DAIPs) reporting on them annually and reviewing them every four years. These individual DAIPs will sit below the overarching State Plan.
After public consultation, Berri Barmera Council has endorsed our 2020-2024 Disability Access and Inclusion Plan (DAIP) Alternative reading formats of this plan will be available soon.
The Plan aims to address current and emerging accessibility issues while setting realistic actions that support our current community and future generations. The strategies and actions are designed to guide the Council’s decision-making and delivery of services and programs and acknowledges that an accessible and inclusive community is required to support the prosperity and health of our residents.
To guide our implementation we will maintain a working document that identifies some of the more specific actions being undertaken. View the current version of this Action Plan here.
