A system was set up to allocate helpers to assist people with disabilities to live their lives independently and inclusively in their communities in accordance with the CRPD. Besides the government has responded to the NHRCT’s recommendations in improving access to public transport for people with disabilities by developing a plan to improve on infrastructure design, and setting minimum standards of facilities for public transport, especially those which are accessible by people with disabilities. However, the government’s effort to enable people with disabilities to access certain rights still have not brought concrete results, especially the right to education for children with disabilities, most of whom only finish primary education. As for children with intellectual, learning, behavioural and emotional impairment, including autistic children, there has been no educational programme that responds to their specific needs, and there is a shortage of teaching personnel with appropriate training. There is also a lack of support system for families to prepare these children for inclusive education with normal ones. With regard to the right to work, it is found that government measures to promote employment opportunities have not led to an increase in the number of people with disabilities who have found jobs. Job placement for this group of people by state agencies is still low. It is also found there are no specific measures in place to protect and assist girls with disabilities in cases of sexual violations against them. The NHRCT therefore recommends to the government to promote access of people with disabilities to various rights, especially the right to education, by developing appropriate educational programmes according to the Education Provision for Persons with Disabilities Act, B.E. 2551 (2008), including arrangement of a learning support system which is suitable for each type of disabilities. In relation to the right to work, the NHRCT recommends that a study be conducted to identify obstacles faced by people with disabilities in finding jobs or in their work experience, because the number of people with disabilities who are currently working is still low compared to the total number of those who are in the working age and capable of working. Furthermore, the government should adopt preventive measures for people with disabilities, especially girls, who are vulnerable to assault and sexual violation and should also strengthen measures to protect, assist and compensate the victims of violations. The government has promoted and protected women’s rights in various aspects, such as suppression of human trafficking for exploitation from prostitution, resulting in reduction of such cases as shown by statistics. Measures have been adopted to prevent and address the problems of sexual violation and harassment in the workplace, which are in line with the recommendations of the CEDAW committee. Amendments to Section 301 and Section 305 of the Criminal Code regarding the conditions for termination of pregnancy will benefit women with necessity to access safe abortion services. The government also encouraged both state agencies and private companies to adopt measures promoting gender equality in their respective organizations. The Civil Partnership Bill and amendments to the Civil and Commercial Code are being prepared to promote gender equality for LGBT people in founding families. 29
