Psychiatrist Dr Tanveer Ahmed says many people who receive disability support fear losing their payments if they enter the job market.

Dr Ahmed said some critics of the NDIS are those who are “suffering the disability themselves”, particularly those on the autism spectrum.

“The reality is, they might’ve had trouble working, they’re lacking confidence,” he told Sky News host Chris Smith. “There’s so much risk for them because if it doesn’t go well straight away, they can lose their payments and they can be in real trouble.”
