Why we need an NDIS Commission – Easy Read
The NDIS is changing the way people with disability in Australia get support. The NDIS Commission is to help NDIS participants receive good quality services, and to keep NDIS participants safe.
The NDIS Commission wants to make things better for NDIS participants. The NDIS Commission wants to: protect your rights, help other people know and understand your rights, help you receive good quality services, keep NDIS participants safe.
It is the job of the NDIS Commission to help NDIS participants receive good quality services, and keep NDIS participants safe. The NDIS Commission also make sure the rules are the same across Australia. The new rules replace the rules that states and territories have used in the past.
