The New Leviathan: A National Disability Insurance Scheme

The National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) has been touted as the biggest social reform since Medicare. Currently, there is only a naive understanding of the scheme.

The New Leviathan: A National Disability Insurance Scheme, a new report by The Centre for Independent Studies (CIS), makes the case that the NDIS will start big and get bigger and become the new leviathan of the Australian welfare state.

Andrew Baker, a Policy Analyst with the CIS and author of the report, discusses the findings in this video.

You can follow the CIS on Twitter @CISOZ and find us on Facebook 'The Centre for Independent Studies' for more updates.
