National Disability Insurance Scheme Amendment (Securing the NDIS for Future Generations) Bill 2026 Submission 1224
Submission for the NDIS Amendment Bill
Name:
I am a disabled person and NDIS participant. The NDIS has helped me to access
education, have community participation, and transportation to be able to access
services and medical appointments.
I am concerned about this Bill causing disabled people to lose and/or be denied
support they need. Current assessment processes and eligibility criteria already
prevent disabled people from accessing support they need, harsher processes will
cause further harm, especially for autistic people when assessors don’t have
comprehensive understanding of how needs fluctuate and the extent of how
disabling autism and other disabilities can be.
I do not support this bill because it will harm people I care about by denying them
the supports they need and focuses on the wrong issues.
Thank you for your time spent reading my submission.
