We thank the member for Maribyrnong for bringing the matter to the House's attention. The NDIS is an insurance scheme that is designed to provide funding that is reasonable and necessary, and, in this case, on the facts that the member has presented, it sounds both reasonable and very necessary. It's designed to go up and down with stages of someone's life. I'll speak to the minister directly after we've finished here to ensure that the funding is necessary for the various stages of this little child's life, and if need be we'll get the situation reviewed as is provided for under the law.
