By

11h ago· 3 min readenNews

Summary

Disability and human rights advocates have strongly criticized the government's proposed overhaul of the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) at a senate inquiry. Advocates warn that the changes could put disabled Australians' lives at risk, break apart families, and undermine the foundational principles of the NDIS. The proposed reforms face fierce opposition from those who argue they would harm vulnerable participants rather than improve the system.
