Our call to action
The government has released draft lists of what NDIS participants can and cannot spend their funding on and opened them for a brief period of public consultation. This list attempts to remove many supports that people with disability use in the NDIS. In short, it proposes a complete re-orientation of disability supports and stands in direct contradiction to the Scheme’s original intention. We cannot let this happen.
Submissions are due 5pm AEST on Sunday 25 August 2024. AFI have developed tips and ideas which can be used to help write a submission. We ask that you make this your own, add your story and experience. The government needs to understand how damaging this proposal is.
