NDIS Participant Transport Supports

Question

Senator ASKEW: That will be an interesting conversation. Can you provide me with the data over the last three year financial years, possibly on notice, for the transport allowance, the number of recipients of each of those tiers, especially in regard to the recurring transport payments, and the total amount expended on each tier? Would you have that now? Ms Durham: Not over five years. I can take that on notice. Senator ASKEW: Okay. If you could also provide that in regard to those exceptional circumstances payments for the higher funding amount for that same period, that would be good. I'd be interested to see how that changes each year, because it would be quite a different variation, I would've thought. Ms Durham: Yes, they're paid at a constant rate, year on year, but we can provide that over five years. Senator ASKEW: Obviously that would include the number of recipients, so that's fine.
