National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) Minister Bill Shorten has announced that two providers from South Australia (SA) associated with the scheme have been banned from the NDIS following the discovery they were rorting it for hundreds of thousands of dollars.

Allegedly the pair, who both reside in Adelaide, made false claims to the NDIS from plans of participants who had not received the alleged support. According to the Department for Social Services, the pair allegedly made claims worth more than $465,000 (US$297,000).
