Petition request

That the House of Representatives remove Supported Living Payment benefit reviews for people with lifelong disabilities.

Petition reason

I believe we should remove all barriers for people with lifelong disabilities who are receiving the Supported Living Payment benefit. I believe people should not have to prove their disability every two years to the Ministry of Social Development when there is no cure. I believe this would ensure that they would not be discriminated against.
