I move:

That the Senate—

(a) acknowledges that an unacceptably high number of people with disability are subjected to neglect, violence and abuse in residential, institutional and home care settings;

(b) notes the disturbing evidence shown in the Four Corners report on 24 November 2014 in regard to abuse of people with disability in residential, institutional and home care; and

(c) calls on the Government to take urgent action and set up a national inquiry into the violence, neglect and abuse against people with disability in residential, institutional and home care settings.

Question agreed to.
