Question 2: True or False? If an impairment varies in intensity (for example, because the impairment is of a chronic episodic nature) the person is unlikely to meet Section 24(1)(e).
Pause [for answers]
A: False. Even if a person’s needs go up and down over time, or happen episodically, we may still consider it’s likely they’ll need lifetime support under the NDIS.

Streamlined requirements
Lists designed to streamline the access process:
- List A — conditions which are likely to meet the disability requirements of s24
- List B — permanent conditions for which functional capacity is variable
- List D — permanent impairment/early intervention, under 7
Other streamlined processes:
- Hearing 0-25
indis
Facilitator notes:
Say
To further support the decision-making process, the NDIA has developed lists of conditions which are designed to streamline assessing a person’s continued eligibility for the NDIS.
There is also a streamlined process for people aged 0-25 with hearing impairments.
We won’t go into detail about the streamlined hearing requirements now, but it is important to be aware of this approach.
You can find more information about these requirements in Our Guidelines – Applying to the NDIS, under the heading ‘How will early intervention help you?’

List A, B, and D
Lists designed to streamline the eligibility requirements:
- List A — conditions which are likely to meet the disability requirements of s24
- List B — permanent conditions for which functional capacity is variable
- List D — permanent impairment/early intervention, under 7
Facilitator notes:
Say
Let’s take a look at our other streamlined lists in more detail – List A, B and D.
[Refer learners to locate List A on the NDIS website.]
Click List A describes conditions which are likely to meet the disability requirements in section 24 of the NDIS act.
This means that conditions on this list will generally meet the disability requirements without any further assessment.
What are some examples of conditions on List A?

Pause [Allow learners to locate answers and respond - Any conditions listed on List A are acceptable.]
[Refer learners to locate List B.]
Click List B describes permanent conditions for which functional capacity is variable.
This means conditions on this List likely meet the requirements of Section 24 (1)(a) and (b) but further assessment of the remaining disability requirements is needed.
What are some examples of conditions on List B?
Pause [Allow learners to locate answers and respond - Any conditions listed on List B are acceptable.]
Click List D describes permanent impairments that likely meet the early intervention requirements without any further assessment. List D only applies to children under the age of 7.
[Refer learners to locate List D.]
What are some examples of condition on List D?
Pause [Allow learners to locate answers and respond]
[Any conditions on List D are acceptable. For ER – facilitator may like to acknowledge that while participant’s meeting for List D conditions are less common at the ER stage, this should be checked for any child under the age of 7.]
For List A and List D, no further evidence is required to satisfy the DIS and EI criteria respectively for conditions on these lists.
For List B, impairment and permanency are satisfied but further evidence of functional capacity is required to determine if the disability or early intervention requirements are met.
