Hi
The new NDIS Screening Check process, if I am correct, will be a barrier to onboarding volunteers. There must be a better way to do this.

We are monitoring the situation to assess any ongoing issues for volunteers applying for NDIS checks. While the volunteer fee waiver is good outcome of our advocacy we are concerned with the time taken to process the checks and are working closely with the Worker Screening Unit to see what can be done to improve on this.
