A
National Disability Insurance Scheme(方案)
The National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) will transform the way Queenslanders with disability are supported and change the way disability services are funded and delivered.
Under the scheme, Queenslanders with disability will have choice and control over how they access support and who delivers them. They will also have certainty that they will be supported throughout their lifetime to achieve their personal goals.
The NDIS will have an effect on the following programs.
School Transport Assistance Program for Students with Disability
The NDIS will not disrupt existing services for qualified students. The Queensland Government will also continue to provide school transport assistance for students with disability who are not qualified to receive funding via the NDIS.
For more information about the School Transport Assistance Program, and to check your qualification, visit the Education and Training website.
Taxi Subsidy(补助金)Scheme
The Queensland Government has lengthened the Taxi Subsidy Scheme(TSS) membership for NDIS qualified members to 31 October, 2022. This will allow more time to solve transport support arrangements under the Commonwealth's NDIS.
You can find more information about the TSS and your qualification on the TransLink website.
Disability Parking Permit Scheme
No changes will be made to the Disability parking permit scheme when the NDIS is introduced in Queensland. Current arrangements for this scheme will be maintained.
You can find more information on this scheme, and check your qualification, on the Queensland Government website.
Public Transport Concessions for People with Disability
There will be no change to concessions on public transport for people with disability when the NDIS is introduced in Queensland. TransLink will continue to ensure concessions are provided for disabled persons travelling on public transport in Queensland when the NDIS is introduced.
You can find more information about public transport discounts for people with disability, and check your qualification, on the TransLink website.
