Producer: Ms Rumble Gabrielle 02 6275 4626
Maher interviews Judy Brewer Fisher, wife of former Deputy Prime Minister, about a rally at Parliament House.
Fisher explains the reasons behind the set up of white chairs with photographs is to make people more aware of autism. She outlines how frustrating policy makers and politicians not understanding the issue of autism. She further comments on that there has not been a disability policy from either major party. She says the Medicare Safety Net does not let them access therapies needed. She says the child care policies also do not help autism families. She says this is a plea to start taking pressure of disbaility affected families.
