Prostitution, tarot card reading, and Japan trips have one thing in common—they will no longer be funded under the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS).

This change came as part of Labor’s upcoming reforms to rein in the scheme, which is expected to spiral to $50 billion (US$33.7 billion) by 2025/26—higher than the annual Medicare bill.
