The approach in the legislation, supported by the amendments that the government is supporting here, is that a participant's reasonable and necessary budget is calculated on the basis of their needs assessment, having regard to the impairments that meet the disability and/or early intervention requirements. It doesn't deviate from that central proposition, and that is the effect of the scheme of the legislation.
