Joint statement: NDIS reforms risk real harm without proper consultation

In this joint statement, Community Legal Centres Australia, the Law Council of Australia, National Legal Aid and National Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Legal Services urge the Australian Government to allow sufficient time to genuinely consult on amendments, safeguards and implementation relating to the proposed reforms to the NDIS. Government must work with people with disability and the disability sector to secure the NDIS by strengthening trust, safeguards and rights - not by rushing changes before their consequences are understood and planned for.

National Legal Aid welcomes consultation on Second Action Plan

National Legal Aid welcomed the Australian Government’s commencement of consultation on the Second Action Plan under the National Plan to End Violence Against Women and Children 2022–2032. We commend the Government’s continued commitment to driving action to address gender-based violence and are grateful for the opportunity work closely with Government to ensure the Plan delivers practical, system-wide improvements.
