National Disability Insurance Scheme Amendment (Securing the NDIS for Future Generations) Bill 2026

Submission 3730

Dear fellow citizens, and participants in our democratic parliamentary process,

As a retired Occupational Therapist I have had a particular interest over many decades in couraging independent capacity for people who live with disability of any kind.

Now as I age in my community I watch the needs of my peers and neighbours with the OT lens.

Please do not pass the NDIS Amendment Bill in its current form. It removes rights, reduces choice and control, and will effectively disadvantage and potentially harm people with disability in my community.
