National Disability Insurance Scheme

The Hon. C.M. SCRIVEN (14:26): Supplementary: the Disability Reform Council provides a mechanism for states and territories, together with the federal government and the national disability insurance authority, to work collaboratively together for the success of transitional arrangements to the NDIS. Who is the responsible South Australian minister to the Disability Reform Council?

The Hon. J.M.A. LENSINK (Minister for Human Services) (14:26): I thank the honourable member for her supplementary question. I will be attending the national Disability Reform Council meeting on Monday next week in Sydney and meeting with other jurisdictions. I have talked about the importance in the past of the Disability Reform Council as we transition to full scheme in South Australia, which, as we all know now, has been running late—it was due to be in by 30 June. We have, as a state government, provided secondment of our staff from Disability SA to the National Disability Insurance Agency to assist them in prosecuting those transitions. We will also have a range of discussions on transition issues as we move forward and I look forward to progressing those matters.
