[5/5] ANNOUNCEMENT: FSI Closure/Indefinite Break

[3/5] ANNOUNCEMENT: FSI Closure/Indefinite Break
We tried to put a call out for support and in fairness we got some interest but the state of the steering group would have meant one existing member trying to induct a new steering group from scratch. It was all too unwieldy.

This article says around 70% of #asylum claims are granted on appeal. This sounds similar to the number of applications for #DisabilitySupports.
This means it is common practice to refuse a 1st application to many who need it. Not #justice, unfair https://t.co/aLnmJrrNEJ
