Dr George has maintained the focus on the NDIS in a series of in-depth conversations with sector experts on recent Summer Foundation Reasonable & Necessary episodes.
The latest podcast with Sam Bennett from the Grattan Institute and Nicole Cox from My Place looks into individualised living arrangements beyond group homes.
In the lead up to the NDIS Amendment (Getting the NDIS Back on Track) Bill 2024 being passed Dr George discussed the NDIS support lists – Narrowing our NDIS: Are “support lists” an innovation killer – with Sam Paior from The Growing Space and Chris Coombes from DSC. They discussed the government’s attempt to redefine what the NDIS will pay for and some of the unintended consequences of narrowing the definition of an NDIS support.
Dr George also spoke with Disability Discrimination Commissioner Rosemary Kayess about her fight for disability rights on the world stage and what she thinks about changes to the NDIS back home.
