Riding Office Accessibility Policy

Following a motion to recognize the importance for all Québec citizens to be able to access Members’ riding offices, carried by the Assemblée nationale on February 13, 2019, the Office of the National Assembly adopted the "Politique sur l’accessibilité des bureaux de circonscription aux personnes handicapées" (policy on access for disabled persons to riding offices). This policy, which came into force at the start of the 43^rd Legislature, sets out, among other things, the accessibility criteria Members must consider when choosing their riding office as well as the resources available to them for leasehold improvements that support accessibility.
