On this episode of Reasonable & Necessary, Dr George meets with disability law experts Mitchell Skipsey, and Dr. Darren O’Donovan to understand the changes to the NDIS Act.
They explore the reasons for the changes, and how the various changes may impact on NDIS participants. The conversation highlights the importance of involving people with disabilities in the decision-making process and ensuring that the changes lead to positive outcomes for participants.
The experts emphasise the need for stronger protections to ensure participant choice and control are upheld. The experts suggest some amendments to the Act and encourage listeners to engage in the Senate inquiry and make submissions to express their views and concerns.

Submissions are now due on 17 May.
