Develop an accessible communication policy

Develop an accessible communication policy.

What we have done and continue to do: 

  • Funded dedicated accessible communications roles at the Department of Premier and Cabinet and Emergency Management Victoria. 
  • Established a whole of Victorian government Accessible Communications Working Group to share initiatives for embedding accessible communications in all our work. 

What we will do: 

  • Build on Premier and Cabinet’s accessible communications work to inform an accessible communication policy. This policy will set out rules and guidelines for communicating in a way that is clear, direct and easy to understand. This is so Victorians of all abilities have equal access to Victorian government information.
