National Disability Insurance Scheme Amendment (Getting the NDI$ Back on Track No. 1) Bill 2024

Submission 243

I am a disabled person and I strongly disagree with some of the amendments. Not every support worker needs to be registered. It’s already very difficult to find a gardener. Give us the choice and control to choose the great workers who may not be registered.

Also, please consider the whole person, not just one diagnosis. Most of us have way more than one, and it’s vitally important to consider how they impact on each other. We can’t be defined by templates.

Sincerely,

Ty Newnham NDIS participant.
