YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Parliament Square. Sounds like it should be accessible to all in a modern democracy, right? In 2016, David Cawthorne challenged that the planned redevelopment of Hobart's Parliament Square didn't meet that basic test. The developer says they meet their requirements under the law. The disability community says they do not. This battle made it all the way to the High Court of Australia.

Let Us In is a co-production between ABC, Melbourne Disability Institute and Point 5 Productions.
