The Parliamentary Joint Standing Committee on the National Disability Insurance Scheme is a federal parliamentary committee that was established in December 2013 to review the implementation and administration of the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS).
The committee will be holding a town hall style public meeting in:
- the Captains Room, Simonds Stadium, Geelong on 14 April 2014.
This is an opportunity for people involved in the NDIS Barwon trial to speak to the committee about their experiences with the trial.
To take part, the committee is inviting registrations from NDIS participants and their nominees, carers and family members, as well as service providers and registered plan management providers in the Barwon trial.
This meeting will be divided into two open public sessions:
- NDIS participants in the Barwon trial and their nominees, carers and family members; and
- service providers and registered plan management providers in the Barwon trial.
Following each session, there will also be an opportunity to speak to the committee in a closed private session. Registration will be essential for these closed sessions.
