Legislative Council Fifty-Fourth Parliament, First Session (54-1) 54 1 Parliament of South Australia Legislative Council published Question Time National Disability Insurance Scheme National Disability Insurance Scheme The Hon. C. BONAROS Legislative Council National Disability Insurance Scheme The Hon. C. BONAROS (14:51): Are NDIS approvals anywhere near the approval rates the government anticipated and, if so, what are they? Who is picking up the shortfall where those approvals have not been given? The Hon. S.G. WADE Legislative Council Minister for Health and Wellbeing National Disability Insurance Scheme The Hon. S.G. WADE (Minister for Health and Wellbeing) (14:52): I am advised that, as at 15 May 2019, of the 1,702 state health funded mental health clients, 392 (23 per cent) have an approved and funded NDIS plan. I might clarify whether that relates to IPRSS only because it's, coincidentally, exactly the same number for IPRSS. The Hon. C. Bonaros Legislative Council The Hon. C. Bonaros: The funding isn't in relation to IPRSS only, either. The President Legislative Council The PRESIDENT: It's not a conversation, minister; it's a response. The Hon. S.G. WADE Legislative Council The Hon. S.G. WADE: I might seek clarification on the question, then.
