At present, there are about 603 1 10,000 disabled people in Nanjing. Fourteen or five? And in the future, due to the accelerated aging of the population and other factors, the number of disabled people will still increase. ? The disabled group is the most difficult and special group in society, with a large number and wide influence. ? Relevant leaders of the Standing Committee of Nanjing Municipal People's Congress told reporters that strengthening the protection of 600,000 disabled people in the city by the rule of law is not only a pragmatic measure to implement the relevant decision-making arrangements of the central government, but also a successful experience and mature practice accumulated in solidifying and strengthening the protection of disabled people in the city in the form of laws and regulations.
? Most of the existing policies for the protection of the disabled in our city are based on departmental normative documents, which is far from the requirements of strengthening local legislation and accelerating the process of rule of law at higher levels. It is urgent to integrate, optimize and upgrade the existing relevant policies in our city and standardize them through legislation. ? Zhang, chairman of the Social Committee of Nanjing Municipal People's Congress, told reporters that legislation to protect the rights and interests of the disabled is to institutionalize the division of responsibilities and safeguard measures for the protection of the disabled, further clarify the responsibilities of party and government organs, social organizations and other organizations in the work of the disabled, and provide legal guarantee for promoting the high-quality development of the cause of the disabled in the city.
The bill consists of nine chapters and 53 articles. Based on the concept of all-round and life-cycle protection for the disabled, it provides detailed provisions on disability prevention and rehabilitation, education for the disabled, employment, culture and sports, social security, barrier-free environment and related legal responsibilities in Nanjing. Among them, the chapter on education for the disabled solidified the practical experience of special education for the disabled, especially integrated education in our city, and it is planned to implement 15 three-year free education for children and adolescents with disabilities from preschool to high school.
The Bill also responds to the concerns of people with disabilities, and proposes to provide for a bottom-up guardianship system for people with disabilities, so as to respond to the care difficulties encountered by people with disabilities in reality. In order to respond to the concerns of disabled people about parking and parking spaces, Article 40 intends to provide for the reduction or exemption of parking fees for disabled people.
The bill closely follows the legislative trend and the development of the cause of the disabled, giving full consideration to the state, province and Nanjing? Fourteen or five? We will clarify and solidify the relevant requirements of the development plan for the disabled, and propose to establish and improve the foster care service system that combines boarding foster care service, day care and home foster care service.
