Submission to the NDIS Thin Markets Project

OPA submission to the NDIS Thin Markets Project

OPA welcomes the opportunity to make a written submission to the NDIS Thin Markets Project but notes that thin markets have been thoroughly investigated by independent inquiry bodies such as the Joint Standing Committee on the NDIS, the Productivity Commission, and McKinsey & Company.

Despite numerous calls to action, the implementation of recommended market interventions has been slow. Meanwhile, the impacts felt by participants continue to accumulate.

OPA stresses the need for an urgent and comprehensive market response to prevent further unnecessary harm, and reminds the National Disability Insurance Agency (NDIA) of its commitment to intervene proactively to market-related issues
