Spam: Submission to the Inquiry into the National Disability Insurance Scheme Bill 2012

From: To: Community Affairs, Committee (SEN); Subject: Spam: Submission to the Inquiry into the National Disability Insurance Scheme Bill 2012 Date: Friday, 21 December 2012 5:11:45 PM

Please consider this email a formal submission by me to the Senate Standing Committee on Community Affairs Inquiry into the National Disability Insurance Scheme Bill 2012.

The current disability system has many problems that need to be addressed.

To much Red Tape and we need appropriate people to operate disability departments

The main features of the NDIS that will make a difference to the community are:

• Ensure support and equipment is available when needed,
• People with disability can choose who comes into their home,
• Less red tape, with planning done locally by people who know their community

The most important services for the NDIS to provide are:

• Equipment and home/vehicle modifications,
• Support for families and carers,
• Flexible in-home/outside home respite

I support the introduction of the NDIS.

I have a severely disabled child in my care(foster)

I agree for my submission to be made public

Regards, mrs Val Baard
