N2  - 9. In 2021, the Ministry of Disabled People – Whaikaha (the Ministry) was given a dual mandate by
Cabinet to deliver Disability Support Services (DSS), including national implementation of the Enabling Good Lives approach (EGL), and a strategic policy function across government. The
Ministry has inherited from the former Ministry of Health significant financial pressures, which are
longstanding, and already anticipates costs greater than Budget 2024 funding for the coming
financial year.
10. This Report provides our findings and recommendations from Phase One of the Independent Review into the Sustainability of Disability Support Services administered by the Ministry of Disabled People – Whaikaha. (From the Executive summary).
