Section 37 — National Disability Insurance Scheme Act 2013: When plan is in effect

(1) A participant’s plan comes into effect when the CEO has: (a) received the participant’s statement of goals and aspirations from the participant; and (b) approved the statement of participant supports. Note: Division 4 deals with varying and replacing plans. (3) A participant’s plan ceases to be in effect at the earliest of the following times: (a) when the plan is replaced by another plan (see subsection (4)); (b) if the plan is a new framework plan—immediately after the end of the maximum period of effect specified in the plan under paragraph 32D(2)(d); (c) in any case—when the participant ceases to be a participant. Note: A new framework plan may be varied to change the period mentioned in paragraph (b) (see paragraph 47A(1AA)(d)). (4) For the purposes of paragraph (3)(a), if a plan (the replacement plan) comes into effect for a participant while another plan is in effect, the other plan is replaced by the replacement plan.
