Australia's Disability Support System 
Commonwealth Government

Four Corners - 15/02/2010: Breaking Point Reporter: Wendy Carlisle

Now the federal government says something must be done. It's holding an Inquiry, with the intention of creating a new and fairer system. It's even considering a national disability insurance scheme. But will the system be reformed in time to save the families now at breaking point?
