NDS welcomes the Federal Government’s announcement of long overdue changes designed to help NDIS participants more easily achieve their employment goals. The changes will remove delays and blockages that impede people with significant disability from immediately accepting a job offer in a Disability Enterprise.

Minister for Social Services, Paul Fletcher MP, said the changes are evidence that the government’s NDIS Participant Employment Taskforce is delivering policy solutions that will enhance the workforce participation of people with disability. Former NDS CEO, Dr Ken Baker, is a member of the Taskforce.
