Written by alianca on 13 de julho de 2022
As an Australian with a disability, it can be hard to navigate the various state and federal systems that exist to support those with disabilities. One such system is the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS), which is designed to provide funding and support for people with disabilities to live their best lives.
In Queensland, the NDIS is managed by the National Disability Insurance Agency (NDIA), which is a federal government agency. However, there are also state-based disability support services that exist in Queensland. This can sometimes lead to confusion for those participating in the NDIS, as it can be unclear which service provider is responsible for which aspect of their support.
To help address this issue, the Queensland state government and the NDIA have entered into a bilateral agreement. This agreement outlines how the two entities will work together to make sure that people with disabilities in Queensland receive the support they need.
One of the key features of the agreement is the development of a joint planning process, which will allow for better coordination between the NDIA and state-based disability support services. This means that people with disabilities in Queensland will have a single point of contact for their NDIS support, which should help to reduce confusion and ensure that they receive the right assistance.
The bilateral agreement also outlines how the NDIA and the Queensland government will work together to improve the quality of disability support services in the state. This includes initiatives aimed at improving the skills and training of support workers, as well as measures to make sure that people with disabilities are able to access the services they need.
Overall, this bilateral agreement between the NDIA and the Queensland government is a positive step forward for disability support in the state. By working together, the two entities will be able to better coordinate the support and services that people with disabilities need to live their best lives.
