(Question No 159)
Mrs Kikkert asked the Minister for Disability, upon notice, on 1 April 2021:
(1) In relation to NDIS-registered behaviour support practitioners, how many practitioners in the ACT have submitted a positive behaviour support plan to the Senior Practitioner during the year 2019–20.
(2) How many positive behaviour support plans have been received by the Senior Practitioner for the year 2019–20.
Ms Davidson: The answer to the member’s question is as follows:
(1) A total of 38 behaviour support practitioners submitted behaviour support plans to the Senior Practitioner during the year 2019-20. In 2019, the NDIS allowed unregistered practitioners to write plans. NDIS registration is a matter between the NDIA and the practitioner.
