She was a member of the expert four-person panel that developed the Victorian Charter of Human Rights and Responsibilities.

Galbally then went on to chair the Federal Government's National People with Disability and Carers' Council.

Galbally was a board member of the National Disability Insurance Agency (NDIA) and Principal Member of the Independent Advisory Council which provided advice to the NDIA about the importance of self-determination, social and economic inclusion, peer support and contemporary living models including the right to a mainstream life for people with disabilities.

As a Commissioner of the Royal Commission into Violence, Abuse, Neglect and Exploitation of People with Disabilities, Galbally is keen to utilise what she has learned from her broad experience which gives her a detailed understanding of some of the major interfacing systems, including health, education, justice and housing.

But most of all Galbally brings decades listening to and working shoulder-to-shoulder with people with disabilities and families in fighting for the human right to be able to live lives fully in the community, without fear of violence, abuse, neglect and exploitation.
