Difficulty accessing information for disabled people

From: To: Community Affairs, Committee (SEN); Subject: sub891Submission to the Inquiry into the National Disability Insurance Scheme Bill 2012 Date: Thursday, 17 January 2013 12:45:38 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.

because it is hard to get any information without ringing 50 places looking for the smallest amount of info for anything to do with carering or help for disabled people.

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

People with a disability can choose the types of support to use, 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:

Therapy and allied health services, Equipment and home/vehicle modifications,

Life-skills

I support the introduction of the NDIS.

i think everyone has the right to be treated fairly and have the right for a better future including care and help where needed

I agree for my submission to be made public
