NDIS Changes Threaten Thousands
Description
The NDIS is on the brink of major changes that could strip eligibility from 240,000 people—despite unchanged disability levels—by legally shifting responsibility to parents, potentially ignoring their exhaustion, health, or work commitments. Families like Natasha Sholl’s, who fought tirelessly to get their quadriplegic son Ezra onto the scheme, fear these reforms will deepen systemic neglect. With rushed public hearings and minimal time for input, critics warn this legislation could permanently undermine support for disabled Australians and their caregivers.
