NDIS Review Submission-Enduring Solutions for a Neurodivergent Population

This submission outlines legislative and policy recommendations to provide longevity of a broad vision for government and society to follow and address the accountability gaps that currently exist in the ecosystem. Specifically it covers Models of Disability, Governance and Accountability Frameworks, and Interaction with Local, State and Commonwealth Services.

While there is a focus on autism we have identified that there are many aspects of this submission that applies and benefits all disability, particularly given the significant level of co-occurring conditions that exist for Autistic people. These recommendations also provide the opportunity for the NDIA to be demonstrably the exemplar organisation (and for all government agencies to follow their lead).
