As discussed, I'm keen to know how much of the scheme is spent on early intervention
(Or alternatively children with mild to moderate development delay or autism, but I suspect
that is more difficult).
From what I can see in the quarterly report:
* There are 173,466 children aged 0 to 8, with an average annual payment of $19,100
This would make a 2024-25 spend of $3.3 billion on that age group (under 9s)
* I can also see, in another section, that active participant plans under early intervention alone
total 235,728 participants. But I can't see the average annualised payment to that group
Let me know if your team has an appropriate figure on hand? Or if that $3.3 billion figure is
too blunt to be accurate?
Response by 6pm would be excellent if possible.
Many thanks
Natassia
