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

Submission 89

What does the NDIS mean for you right now? Now the ndis allows me to live a relatively okay life . I have many disabilities. I need lots of help to live an okay life .
How do you feel about the proposed changes to the NDIS Act? They would strip a lot of people of a life . If I was removed or reduced from the NDIS I would not be able to survive or live a relatively independent life .
Do you feel these changes have been explained clearly enough? No . No one knows what’s happening - everyone is stressed as nothing has been explained clearly . No one knows who will be affected and how much
What would these changes mean for you, your family, friends, carers, or community? I do not have any outside support . I would be a burden constantly on the health system to no end .
What would happen if your social and community supports were reduced or removed? I only have a very very limited social engagements as it is as my social autism affects me . I would have none if my support was removed and / or reduced
What would happen if your capacity building supports were reduced or removed
or if you never had access to them in the first place? I need a lot of help in life . Without them I wouldn’t survive very long at all .
