The Government is going to have a look at how good access to new buildings is for disabled people.
People with disabilities are saying their education and employment opportunities are being limited because newly constructed buildings are still not accessible to them, according to the minister for Disability Issues Tariana Turia.
A review of building laws and regulations will be carried out by the Ministry for Business, Innovation and Employment, and the Office for Disability Issues, with recommendations due by the middle of next year.
