Transport to be included to get to therapies
Question 2:
What is most important to measure and report on as we seek to achieve economic security for people with disability?
Transport to be included to get to work
Question 3:
What is most important to measure and report on as we seek to achieve health and wellbeing outcomes for people with disability?
Transport to be include to access wellbeing activities
Question 4:
What is most important to measure and report on as we seek to achieve rights, protection, justice and legislation outcomes for people with disability?
Participants are worse off in NSW with NDIS after the end of the State funded Community Care Support Program which provided subsidised transport. In regional areas the public transport isnt available and we are now paying three times or more asmuch. There should be protections in place so people are not worse off financially under NDIS.
Question 5:
What is most important to measure and report on as we seek to achieve learning and skills outcomes for people with disability?
Often can people go due to transport disadvantage

People being able to get transport for personal needs and community support
Question 7:
How often would you like to see progress against the outcomes for people with disability in the National Disability Strategy and the National Disability Insurance Scheme reported?
Reflecting access to services as a barrier, it is crazy to have funded supports for things that will help us and then not be able to afford to get there due to transport not being included.
Question 8:
Is there anything else that you think should be considered when we are monitoring and measuring the impact of activities on people with disability?
Review Transport, people are worse off in NSW due to the CCSP funding and ADHC closing.
