On page 37 of the royal commission's second progress report, the chair noted that the limitations of confidentiality are impeding people's willingness to give evidence and therefore affecting the scope of the commission's work. We are now a year into a process that was meant to take three years in total and the issue has not been resolved. Does the Attorney-General acknowledge that his failure to act has served as an impediment to disabled people telling our stories to our commission?
