During question time the Prime Minister asserted that I have not provided funding for the NDIS. This is untrue. I and Labor helped build the NDIS. I and Labor will always protect the NDIS. Labor will always ensure that it is properly funded. Our plan is just fairer and better, because we do not want 10 million working Australians to pay more and millionaires to pay less. That is why we have the best plan for the NDIS and Australia.
