Committee on Budgetary Oversight
Report of the Commission on Taxation and Welfare: Discussion (Resumed)
Dr. Adeelia Goffe:
This is the responsibility of the design phase. Whoever is commissioning the architect must make sure that accessibility is noted as being primary, and not just for mobility challenges but also for someone who might have visual or hearing impairment, or somebody who is on the autism spectrum. Without a doubt, buildings must be accessible across the board, including GP practices and primary care facilities.
