About the NDIS Review
Minister Bill Shorten referred to the independent NDIS Review as “the review of reviews”. It will look at the design, operations and sustainability of the NDIS and at how to make the market and workforce more responsive, supportive and sustainable. It will work with participants, their families and carers, as well as providers and workers, to put people with disability back at the centre of the NDIS. The NDIS Review is led by panel co-chairs Professor Bruce Bonyhady AM and Ms Lisa Paul AO PSM.
