The CRPD-OP is part of an international human rights treaty (or agreement). It offers disabled people a way to make a complaint to the United Nations Committee on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (UN Disability Committee). To do so, they must first have exhausted all ways to resolve a problem domestically, that is, here in New Zealand. The guide is also available as a Word DOC document, as an Easy Read document and can be viewed as a New Zealand Sign Language video. Use the Disability rights guides link to access all these formats.
