The IMM recommends that the Government:

112. From 2023, re-start the Disability Survey following each Census, commencing with the 2023 Census.

113. Continue to introduce disability data collection in all general household surveys conducted by Statistics New Zealand.

114. Continue to promote the benefits and advise on the limitations of the Washington Group Short Set of Questions on Disability in order to encourage the creation of a consistent cross-agency data set.

115. Continue work with disabled people and representative organisations to ensure that Census completion is barrier-free for disabled people, so they can engage as they choose, with independence, confidence, and dignity.
