Governance
A National Disability Policy and Research Working Group oversaw the 10 disability research projects from the National Disability Research Special Account for the 2012 funding round. A Research and Data Working Group oversaw the 11 disability research projects from the National Disability Research Special Account for the 2015 funding round.
Following administrative changes resulting from National Cabinet’s acceptance of the recommendations of the Conran Review of former COAG Councils and Ministerial Forums, it was agreed the selection, progress and finalisation of the 2020 National Disability Research Special Account research projects would be overseen by Commonwealth, state and territory officials responsible for the implementation of the National Disability Strategy.
