Concerns about fast-tracking bill impacting people with disabilities

National Disability Insurance Scheme Amendment (Getting the NDIS Back on Track No. 1) Bill 2024 [Provisions]

Submission 203

Inquiry:

The National Disability Insurance Scheme Amendment (Getting the NDIS Back on Track No.

  1. Bill 2024 (Provisions)

I wish to express my strong concerns and disappointment about this bill, and the manner in which it is being fast-tracked to avoid closer scrutiny.

I have many people in my life who have disabilities who currently receive NDIS funding.

It is clear to me that the impact of this bill will be detrimental to their ability to continue their current path of leading a fulfilling life within their individual capacity.

I seriously hope the responses in this inquiry are taken seriously, and it is not just a process to satisfy a procedural requirement.
