Thanks, Senator Steele-John. I was actually referring specifically to the NDIS and the fact that it is a joint venture, I suppose, for the want of a better term, between the Commonwealth and the states and territories. When I referred to the responsibilities that sit outside of the NDIS for the provision of services, I suppose to a large extent I was referring to the kinds of things that I think are expected to be embedded in the behaviours of the states who do the delivery. For example, disability-appropriate education supports and disability-appropriate transport supports and infrastructure are the sorts of things I was referring to in the second part of my response. But certainly, in terms of the joint venture, for want of a better word, I was referring to the NDIS.
