Access Card update

The  Minister for Human Services, Senator Chris Ellison, said following the release of the report of the Senate Committee Inquiry into the Human Services (Enhanced Service Delivery) Bill 2007:

“The legislation will now be presented as one package, to be introduced in June. This will mean members of the public can see the full detail of the legislation.”

“The Government is committed to providing ordinary Australians with a better health benefits, veterans’ and social services system, and we remain on track to rolling out the access card in 2008.”
