Women With Disabilities Australia (WWDA) writes to seek clarification and further information from you regarding information provided by the Australian Government to the United Nations (UNESCAP) Questionnaire for Governments on Implementation of the Beijing Declaration and Platform for Action (BPFA) and the outcomes of the twenty-third special session of the General Assembly (2000). As I am sure you are aware, Australiaโs response to the Questionnaire is publicly available on the UNESCAP website at: http://www.unescap.org/ESID/GAD/Issues/Beijing+15/index_questionaire.asp
