Who can get the NDIS?

This book is about who can get the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS). To get an NDIS plan you must meet the NDIS rules. The rules say you must have a permanent disability, have a significant disability which affects your everyday life, be between 7 and 65 years old, be an Australian citizen, or have a certificate that says you can live here, and live in a part of Australia where NDIS is available. To get an NDIS plan you must also need special equipment to do daily tasks, and need help from another person to do daily tasks.
