Which statement about NDIS equity is true?

• A. The NDIS plan is static and does not adjust to needs.
• B. The individualised plan developed as a part of the NDIS ensures that those with more significant needs receive more assistance.
• C. All participants receive the same level of support.
• D. Funding for the NDIS is crowd-sourced.

Answer: (B)

Equity means supports are matched to what each person truly needs to participate in daily life, not everyone receiving the same package. The individualized plan is built for the person, based on their goals and the supports required to achieve them. If someone has more significant needs, the plan allocates more funding and services to help them reach those goals. Plans are not set in stone; they can be reviewed and adjusted as circumstances change, ensuring support stays appropriate. So the statement that the plan ensures those with greater needs receive more assistance best reflects how NDIS equity works. It’s not true that everyone gets the same level of support or that funding is crowd-sourced, and the plan isn’t static.
