Key Takeaways From Six Days of NDIS Inquiry Hearings
A Senate inquiry has concluded six days of hearings into proposed changes to the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS), with key takeaways emerging.
The government has proposed amendments to the laws governing the scheme, aiming to reduce its cost by more than $30 billion over four years. Over the hearings, senators scrutinized the changes, focusing on how people with disability would be affected, the impact on families and carers, and what alternative services would be available to those losing support. Labor senator Ellie Whiteaker and Greens senator Jordan Steele-John listened to evidence on the final day of public hearings.
