In this bulletin, we explain why we need our policy.

Our policy includes rules about restrictive practices.

It also includes a plan to:

• use less restrictive practices
• stop using restrictive practices.

Our policy makes sure:

• providers use restrictive practices for the right reasons

• people protect the rights of people with disability.

You can read more about our policy on our website.
