Dear Mr. Lepofsky

Thank you for your letter of April 3, 2003 regarding the Ontarians with Disabilities Act and our meeting on March 31.

As you know, our government is committed to an Ontario in which existing barriers are removed over time and no new barriers are created.

The opportunity to meet with yourself and other ODA Committee representatives was productive. I am reviewing the items outlined in your letter and will reply to you in more detail shortly.

Sincerely,
Carl DeFaria
Minister
