PNGADP male co-chairman and chairman of the New Ireland provincial branch, Medley Laban, said currently the draft Act has gone back for editing and once finalised, would be put through parliament.
Speaking in Kokopo, East New Britain Province during a three-day Training of Trainers (ToT) on the United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (UNCRPD) for the NGI region, Laban said though the PNG Government signed the UNCRPD in 2013, there has been very slow progress in terms of implementation.
