00:00The National Disability Action Plan is a long process. What does it entail now, and what are the next steps?
00:08It is a complex action plan that we built last year, in May this year it was formally
00:16signed by the President of the Republic and is therefore fully operational.
00:20We started working according to the instructions we had given ourselves, we specifically wrote to all the responsible parties, government,
00:28regions, associations, institutions,
00:31asking you to send us by November 30th, these days to be precise, a very precise timetable, spread over six months,
00:41in order to understand what actions each of them, each responsible person, will carry out
00:47to ensure that the action plan can be said to have been implemented in three years.
00:52Also because it includes numerous chapters, which are also very current, right?
00:57Absolutely yes, the action plan has seven lines of intervention, very different from each other, from the life project,
01:03accessibility, physical health, well-being,
01:06sport, school, international cooperation, data collection, a total of 66 lines of action.
01:14Each line of action has very specific priority actions and also, as I said before, a responsible subject.
01:21which has the task of coordinating the various political actions to ensure that that line of action then becomes
01:27actually operational.
01:29So you were also able to map, let's say, the numbers of disability at a national level, at a demographic level.
01:35and maybe the more complex regions and the less complex ones?
01:38So, let's say that the data issue is the issue of issues, we have been talking about it for years, we have,
01:44thanks to the work done by the Department,
01:48From Istat, disability in numbers, we have a website dedicated to collecting data on the condition of people with disabilities
01:55which collects both the sample statistical surveys carried out by Istat and all the data analysis carried out by Istat through
02:03the administrative data retrieved from IMSE.
02:06It must be said, however, that there is still a great distance between what we have today and what we need.
02:12to do.
02:12In the line of action on data collection, monitoring, and the state of implementation of policies in favour of people
02:20with disabilities
02:20we have thought about some lines of action that are already in place with Istat precisely to significantly expand
02:29Statistical analysis of the living conditions of people with disabilities in Italy.
02:35So we will have a much larger sample analysis which will allow us to better stratify the different characteristics
02:43and the different life situations throughout Italy and which will also allow us to evaluate new issues
02:49for example on the life plan, rather than on the condition of the caregivers
02:54that today we do not have in the qualitative way that we should have.
