• 16 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: information or assistance. I believe that timelines are of essence. Improvement of the existing structures is also very important. Timelines should be put in place so that we know that within a particular period of time, those buildings will be renovated to make them accessible by people living with disabilities. Awareness campaigns should be conducted so that people can know that all public buildings, other forms of infrastructure and public transport systems are supposed to be renovated to make them accessible by people living with disabilities. view
