An email reply to a members query. Hi xxxxxx I'll pass this along to the policy team.
I am hoping to get some more detail, but as you say, without clarification from the ALP as to the specifics of their intentions, I'm reluctant to say we'll be able to give you the answers you're looking for.
What I can tell you is that any measures introduced in the next parliamentary term will be scrutinised by us (hopefully in a balance of power scenario so we have a strong chance of amending the legislation to improve it) and we will always support measures to better assist people with a disability and particularly those on the DSP.
At this stage it's very difficult to see what those measures will be from the Labor party though.
Senator Rachel Siewert is the Greens spokesperson on disability issues. Her office will be handling our response to the legislation.
Cheers,
David Paris Web and New Media Coordinator for the Australian Greens Senators

I'll email Senator Siewert myself.
