The Joint Committee of Public Accounts and Audit is conducting an inquiry based on any items, matters or circumstances connected with the following Auditor-General report:

No. 18 (2015-16) Qualifying for the Disability Support Pension

The Committee’s role is to examine public administration matters. Where possible submissions should be directed at public administration issues without containing potentially sensitive personal information, such as medical conditions or names of children. The Committee may decide to keep some or all of a submission confidential if it contains this kind of information. If you wish to include such information, you may want to consider requesting that your submission remain confidential to the Committee and its staff—please indicate this clearly on your submission. The following link provides further information about making a submission. If you have any concerns, please contact the Secretariat before lodging your submission.

While the Committee requested that submissions to the inquiry be received by 7 November 2016, it may continue to consider submissions received after this date. There may be a delay between a submission being provided and it being considered and potentially published by the Committee. Thank you for your patience in this matter.
