Abstract
The National Disability Insurance Scheme, well into its pilot phase with bipartisan support, looks clear to be the future of support for Australians with disability. This paper takes a timely review of key research and reports, analysing the potential benefits and disadvantages of the person-centred approach on which the scheme is premised. It addresses these through the frame of services, employees and people with disability in the Australian context. Whilst there are potentially overwhelming benefits there are also potentially major losses. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
