About Event
The Disability (Access to Premises – Buildings) Standards 2010 (DAPS) were updated on November 23, 2024. These changes aim to improve accessibility for People with disabilities promoting a more inclusive built environment.
The event will start with Michael Small providing a high-level overview of the amendment to the Premises Standards and a discussion relating to the impact of the Premises Standards review on the sector. Please note that the session will not discuss changes to AS1428.1 as this has been covered previously by ACA.
This will be followed by Con Livanos presenting on the interrelationship between the Premises standards and the existing Transport standards.
Representatives from VIC, NSW, ACT, and QLD will then provide quick comments on how these changes specifically impact access consultants in their states. The event will conclude with a Q&A session featuring panellists Joe Manton (VIC), Con Livanos (VIC), Mark Relf (NSW), Howard Moutrie (NSW), Eric Martin (ACT), Silvia Rossi (WA), and Nikki Jackson (QLD)
