Four Corners on ABC TV – This week’s Four Corners exposes criminals, opportunists and registered providers who have been busted exploiting loopholes to overcharge and defraud the NDIS.
The revelations come following a three-month crowdsourced investigation which resulted in submissions from hundreds of NDIS participants, families and workers.
Anne Connolly and the Four Corners team reveal that some of the most vulnerable people living with disability are being virtually kidnapped for their NDIS funding.
Consequently, hundreds are “missing” in the system, with the NDIS regulator unaware of where they are and no authorities monitoring their welfare.
The investigation also reveals young people suffering extensive injuries whilst under the care of NDIS-approved providers.
The NDIS Quality and Safeguards Commission is supposed to protect people living with disability, but Careless exposes it’s failing to monitor our most vulnerable.
Careless, reported by Anne Connolly, goes to air on Monday 25 September at 8.30pm on ABC TV and ABC iview.
