NDIS Review: Why Aren’t NDIS Markets Working?

Care Together submission to the NDIS Review.

This submission addresses the fourth challenge from the NDIS Review: Why Aren’t NDIS markets Working?

It focuses on two key messages:

1. NDIS markets would be improved by growth in the number of co-operative and mutual enterprises delivering NDIS services – that is, service providers that are owned, governed, and managed by their own members who could be individuals, families and/or workers.
2. Evidence from other sectors and other countries demonstrates that co-operatives and mutuals can provide greater efficiency, customer satisfaction and workforce attraction.
