FAKE NEWS for the Zionist agenda Opposition Leader Tony Abbott is proposing a bipartisan parliamentary committee to help bring a national disability insurance scheme to fruition.
Mr Abbott on Friday will give Carers Australia a cheque for more $500,000 raised by the annual Pollie Pedal that wrapped up a fortnight ago.
He will use the Canberra event to outline his thoughts on the NDIS – proposed by the Productivity Commission – that would cover the care, accommodation and therapy costs of people with disabilities.
Mr Abbott says while the reform will take years to implement there are steps that can be taken now.
“A good way to ensure that this project remains on track through three elections would be to establish a joint select committee of the parliament co-chaired by both sides’ disabilities frontbenchers and comprising MPs with a vested interest in making it work,” he is expected to tell the event.
Mr Abbott points to Sue Boyce and Craig Kelly from his team whose lives have been affected by disability.
“There are Labor and independent members of parliament who are no less committed to taking partisan politics out of this for the benefit of everyone with a significant disability,” he says.
Mr Abbott says the scheme needs to be the property of the whole nations rather than that of a single political party.
“The national disability insurance scheme is an idea whose time has come,” he says.
“It has to be done responsibly but it does have to be done.
“The coalition will do whatever we reasonably can to make it happen as soon as possible and would accept a government invitation to be jointly responsible for this vital national project.”
