You can answer as many or as few of the questions as you like and include anything else about improving access to the criminal justice system that we have not raised in the Discussion Paper. The consultation process provides an opportunity for you to identify both issues and solutions to overcome barriers to access to justice for people with disability. The questions are divided into more general questions about barriers to justice, and more specific questions about the proposed changes to the law. In addition, you can include anything else.

If you do not want the public to read your answers, please indicate that your response is "confidential".

Please be aware that unless you indicate that your submission is "confidential", it may be made public.

If someone asks for your answers through the Freedom of Information Act process, and if you have told us your answers are confidential, we will contact you and explain what is happening.

However, we have to follow the law. Even if your answers are confidential, we may still have to let someone read your confidential answers, if they ask for them through the Freedom of Information Act process.
