We acknowledge that the Framework was originally released by the Disability Reform Council (DRC) in 2016, following the three-year trial of the NDIS and the transition to the full scheme in the July of that year.
Uniting Communities, therefore, recommends that the Framework is updated to ensure that:
It is regularly reviewed by an appropriate governing body
Success of the Framework is measured and publicly reported on
Service providers and workers are given the opportunity to provide input and feedback into the NDIS, through a designated channel
Additional training and support regarding restrictive practice is made available to the NDIS workforce.
