House of Assembly Fifty-Second Parliament, Second Session (52-2) 52 2 Parliament of South Australia House of Assembly published Question Time National Disability Insurance Scheme NATIONAL DISABILITY INSURANCE SCHEME Ms CHAPMAN House of Assembly Bragg Deputy Leader of the Opposition NATIONAL DISABILITY INSURANCE SCHEME Ms CHAPMAN (Bragg—Deputy Leader of the Opposition) (14:43): My question is to the Minister for Disabilities. How many disability advocacy and representative organisations currently receiving funding support from the state government will lose that funding to pay South Australia's contribution to the NDIS? The Hon. A. PICCOLO House of Assembly Light Minister for Communities and Social Inclusion Minister for Social Housing Minister for Disabilities Minister for Youth Minister for Volunteers NATIONAL DISABILITY INSURANCE SCHEME The Hon. A. PICCOLO (Light—Minister for Communities and Social Inclusion, Minister for Social Housing, Minister for Disabilities, Minister for Youth, Minister for Volunteers) (14:44): The question is: how many groups will lose funding? The national scheme proposed, as you would be aware, it is based on the self-funding model, and who gets extra money and who gets less money will be determined by the people who have disabilities, their carers and their families, as they should. The whole model empowers people with disabilities, their carers and their families to spend the money on what they wish. I would not be able to predict which families go where.
