5311 - ACCESS TO DISABILITY SERVICES

Hornery, Sonia to the Minister for Health, and Minister for Medical Research

What is she doing to increase Ministry of Health services to support those members of the community who can no longer access disability services previously provided by the Department of Ageing, Disability and Home Care, due to recent changes in legislation?

Answer -

I am advised:

In the lead-up to NDIS implementation in New South Wales, Ageing, Disability and Home Care (ADHC) is transitioning the majority of its services to the Non-Government Organisation sector with the transition at varying stages. ADHC is responsible for ensuring that there is adequate capacity in the Non-Government Organisation sector as it transitions its programs and services. NSW Health will continue to provide mainstream health services for the New South Wales population, including those with a disability.
