A group of 25 disability advocacy groups has signed a joint statement urging a halt to controversial NDIS reforms and for them to be rebuilt with an end-to-end co-design process directly involving people with disability.
The signatory organisations say their clients “are overwhelmingly expressing acute fears regarding the risks to their health, wellbeing and access to reasonable and necessary supports” raised by the mandatory independent assessment reforms set to come into effect later this year.
The signatories say the consultation offered on the reforms has been centered on how to implement the policy, not the development of the policy itself.
