Submission 2187 - Supplementary Submission

To The Senate Inquiry into the NDIS 2026 Bill

My name is redacted I have previously submitted to the Inquiry about two weeks ago. (submission date: May 28; submission written: May 27).

I wish to make further points with regards to Section 34A Determination regarding cuts made under funding groups’ determination, which was announced on behalf of Federal Minister’s announcement concerning all plans containing ‘community participation’. The effect intended consequence of such bill is that entire category core supports would cut down at a minimum rate twenty percent. Community social participation code number four part plan entitled flexible contains supports including getting people out bed consumables continence management approved assistive technology up until $500 meal preparation delivery if has been approved shopping cooking cleaning etc Funding can be moved around based circumstances meet individual needs. Such situation manifestly unsafe as participants left without essential every day support reducing their community supports public told disability support works scrolling in shopping centres ignoring participant reality within home too issue worker quality cutting individuals’ plans will not address this.
