- Recommendation
As a signatory of the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities, signed on 30 March 2007, the Government of Dominica remained committed to the full inclusion of persons with disabilities into the mainstream, and efforts had been made to ratify the Convention. There had been a series of stakeholder and wider public consultations. Based on the plan of action, the ratification process would be completed in the next three months, although, owing to resources constraints, Dominica faced difficulties in meeting the spirit and obligations of the Convention.
