We are excited to announce the 2020­–21 Annual Report for the Office of the Public Guardian was tabled in the Northern Territory Legislative Assembly on 30 November 2021.

Key highlights of 2020­–21 include:

  • Overview of Guardianship in the Northern Territory, through statistics, analysis and case studies of the core work undertaken by the Office of the Public Guardian.
  • Advocacy efforts undertaken to ensure the human rights of Territorians with impaired decision-making capacity are protected, promoted and respected.
  • The impact pf the Nation Disability Insurance Scheme for represented person and the Office of the Public Guardian.

Initiatives of the Office of the Public Guardian in relation to contemporary guardianship practice including a strong emphasis on supported decision-making and elimination of restrictive practices across all service sectors.

Without the hard work and dedication of my team and the collaborative efforts of key stakeholders and community groups, these achievements would not have been possible.
