As the year winds to an end, kids with autism and developmental delay face an uncertain future.

Back in August, the government revealed plans to kick them off the NDIS – announcing a new scheme called Thriving Kids, set to kick off next year.

The health minister, Mark Butler, said it would give kids better support – and go some way towards curbing the billions being spent on the NDIS.

But months on, the government still hasn’t reached a deal with the states on how the scheme will be funded – despite threatening to withhold their hospital funding until they agree.

Today, journalist Rick Morton on the fight over the future of Thriving Kids – and what the government is really doing to the NDIS.
