INQUIRY INTO IMPLEMENTATION OF THE NATIONAL DISABILITY INSURANCE SCHEME AND THE PROVISION OF DISABILITY SERVICES IN NEW SOUTH WALES

Name: Name suppressed Date Received: 10 July 2018

My partner has younger onset Alzheimer’s and is currently 55 years old and we have a young family and I work full-time. The NDIS has just commenced this year for us and so far, I cannot fault it. It has given me the opportunity to have services to him and assistance with our life as I cannot be at home with him 24/7, as well as being a mother and a carer. Thank you for the NDIS, it has been a life saver for our family!!! Please keep it going.
