This submission is Inclusion Australia’s response to the Australian Government’s plans to introduce mandatory NDIS independent functional assessments.
Inclusion Australia is very concerned the new independent assessments, planning and funding processes will seriously disadvantage and potentially harm people with intellectual disability, who make up 21 percent of NDIS participants.
Inclusion Australia calls on the government to stop the current rollout of independent assessments and the associated reforms, and consult with the disability community on appropriate ways to improve Scheme access and planning.
