The NDA is updating its guidance to Government departments and public bodies in relation to engaging people with disabilities, including children and young people with disabilities, in policy development and consultation processes. They are engaging directly with DPOs as part of the process, but are now inviting a broad range of stakeholders to submit their views and experiences which will help us update their guidance.

Information is available in Word and Easy-to-read formats and Irish Sign Language. They are accepting submissions by email, post or by video where views can be spoken or signed. The closing date is 9th August 2021. You can find the information and details about how to make a submission on the NDA website: http://nda.ie/news-and-events/news/public-consultation-on-effective-engagement-with-people-with-disabilities.html
