State leaders are pushing back against changes to the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS), which they fear will shift the burden of care from the federal government to the states. Under new eligibility rules, 160,000 people are expected to be shifted off the scheme, with states facing increased funding responsibility. State leaders, including Premiers from WA, QLD, NSW, and TAS, have expressed concerns about the lack of consultation and the potential costs of rebuilding local support systems.
