WRLG Whānau Group - meeting on current DSS Consultation - improvements to DSS services

DSS have a consultation process underway and this means we have (yet) another opportunity to make sure our voices are heard. This consultation is about further improvements to the DSS system and follows on from their 2025 consultation on ‘Stabilising’ the DSS system.

You can find out more about the consultation here

Note that this is a separate thing from the recent DSS Bill submissions process. That one is now closed for submissions, and the Select Committee is due to report back about this Bill in August.

No matter the outcome of that, the current DSS Consultation is an opportunity for our community to speak and help shape the future of disability support.

We would love it if you could join us in an online meeting where we will:

    💬discuss and brainstorm how to respond to the consultation questions.

    ✍️ support one another to prepare submissions and feedback.

    👍 build strong, consistent and empowered messages that reflect the Enabling Good Lives Vision.

Please register your interest at Registration Form | Waitaha EGL Regional Leadership Group or via the blue 'Register here' button above so we know to expect you. If you would like a text reminder please include your phone number in your RSVP.
