Episode description

It's been 10 months since the disability royal commission made 172 recommendations within the federal government's primary or shared control, to improve the lives of people with disability. 

Now, the government’s responded: it says it will accept 13 of them in full. So what’s not going to change?

And, another regional Aussie airline is in deep financial trouble. 

Plus, Victoria may soon be the second place in the country where it’s legal to drive if you've been prescribed medicinal cannabis.

Guests:

  • Marayke Jonkers, president, People with Disability Australia
  • Claudia Long, political reporter, ABC
  • Professor Jen Martin, director, Australian Centre for Cannabinoid Clinical and Research Excellence
