I have heard from Mike Potter, CEO of Disability Connect Auckland, and he said, "the loss of equipment and technology essential to the daily lives of disabled people and their families, no matter how brief, is debilitating, dehumanising, and, in some consequences, life-threatening. Recovery from the setback of not being able to access healthcare, support, or respite takes much longer for disabled people and can be a trigger for long-term dependency." He continued to say that he is grateful for the protection that this legislation offers to vulnerable children and adults from being further disabled by the impact of financial difficulties. Hopefully, it will support communities to be better placed with wellbeing and belonging.
