Morrison vows to prioritise NDIS following election win

Published 21st May 2019

Newly re-elected Prime Minister Scott Morrison says fixing problems in the National Disability Insurance Scheme will be an immediate priority for the federal government, as the social sector reacts to the Coalition’s stunning election victory.

While Labor was hot favourites to win Saturday’s election, Morrison handed the Coalition its third straight election triumph, dedicating the victory to the “quiet Australians” who relied on the government to put them first.

This pledge has been welcomed by disability groups, who say they intend to keep the prime minister to his word.
