General issues around the implementation and performance of the NDIS

Submission 24

The NDIS is a good idea, however there are people like my son who has Cerebral Palsy and severe Osteoporosis and is 37 years of age and lives in Mooroolbark, Vic, not only does he not qualify for the NDIS yet but Centrelink has also cut off his disability allowance. What the hell is he supposed to do until the NDIS kicks in, starve??

He currently has RDNS helping him shower three times a week but as I understand it they are also about to lose funding due to the NDIS and look like merging with RSL care so he will not be washed either.

You have forgotten or neglected a large portion of the disabled community.

This government is a disgrace.
