NDIS Minister Bill Shorten published a draft list of what constitutes NDIS support (and what doesn’t).
Under the new NDIS legislation before the Senate, the definition of NDIS support will have major implications for planning and eligibility decisions. The proposed list would serve as a transitional arrangement until the federal government can reach an agreement with states and territories on permanent legislative Rule.
Public consultation is conducted through the Department of Social Services website and closes on 18th August. The list includes 36 categories of NDIS supports, 15 categories of goods and services that cannot be considered NDIS supports, and a description of services that the government believes should be provided by mainstream services.
The consultation period is very short – submissions close on 18 August.
