NDIS Participants and Providers - Debt

Question

Senator RUSTON: So it's reasonably long. Okay, thank you. Do you have the number of NDIS participants that have a debt with the NDIS? Senator McAllister: Any debt, or debt to the agency?. Senator RUSTON: Debt to the agency. Obviously, I don't expect you to be worrying about whether they've paid their car loan this week. Mr Dardo: We do have the numbers of debts, and I'm just checking whether we've got the current figure on hand right here in front of me or whether I'll have to take it on notice. I can definitely come back to you very quickly. I don't have the exact number in front of me, on hand and open right now, but I'm sure I can get it in the next 15 minutes. Senator RUSTON: Sure-just the number of participants who have a debt and what the total value of that debt to the NDIS is. I'd also be interested to know how many providers have been issued with a debt or an order to repay. Mr Dardo: I will have that at the same time. Senator RUSTON: The total number and value of the amount of that debt.
