The National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) has come under scrutiny after revelations of fraudulent spending amounting to upwards of $2 billion. Integrity officials have uncovered that dodgy providers have used the scheme's funds for illicit drugs, alcohol, rent, holidays, and cars. Some providers even took participants to ATMs to withdraw cash for these expenses. NDIS Minister Bill Shorten is facing backlash following these disclosures. Shorten has attributed the issues to the previous Coalition government, as the National Disability Insurance Agency (NDIA) reports that vulnerable Australians were sold illegal drugs, including heroin and ice, by these providers.
