South Australia's autism community will get its own state government minister in an Australian-first.
Premier Peter Malinauskas says he has heard from many South Australians that the time has come for a dedicated effort from the government to make autism a priority."We have made major commitments with the aim of implementing a whole-of-government autism inclusion strategy, starting with our schools."As well as the new minister, the premier said the government would deliver on its election commitments to invest $28.
In her new role, Ms Bourke will establish the Autism Education Advisory Group, involving people with autism, parents with lived experience, experts, community stakeholders and unions to ensure policies are supported by consultation.But she said the government had heard the years of advocacy by the autism community, through emails, letters, phone calls and forums.
I disagree. The whole of government would best fit a clinical diagnosis of sociopathic rather than autistic.
