Other disability sector leaders see NDIS cost control as essential for ongoing government and taxpayer support for the future of the NDIS. Meanwhile\, State and Territory Governments have accused the Federal Government of creating false expectation the new Thriving Kids program will deliver like-for-like services to the NDIS. \n\n\n\nMegan Spindler-Smith\, Acting CEO People with Disability Australia \n\n\n\nMegan Spindler Smith is the Acting CEO of People with Disability Australia\, the national disability rights and advocacy organisation led by\, and for\, people with all kinds of disability. \n\n\n\nSophie Cusworth\, Chief Executive\, Women With Disabilities Australia \n\n\n\nSophie Cusworth is the Chief Executive Officer of Women With Disabilities Australia\, the national Disabled People’s Organisation and National Women’s Alliance for women\, girls and gender-diverse people with disabilities.  \n\n\n\nDr Martin Laverty\, Chief Executive\, Aruma \n\n\n\nDr Martin Laverty has worked in the not-for-profit disability sector for more than thirty years.
