Thanks for nothing Mr Cullen, says IHC
The Budget has ignored the 35,000 most needy people in New Zealand, says IHC New Zealand.
People with
intellectual disabilities consistently have the lowest life
expectancy, lowest income, poorest education outcomes and
worst health of any other group in society.
This budget
offers nothing for people with intellectual disabilities. In
fact, it doesn't even mention them.
"Thanks for nothing, Mr Cullen," says chief executive Ralph Jones.
