The too hard basket

We often hear about new policies and programs that promise to improve the lives of Australians. But what about the issues that are too stigmatised, too taboo, too awkward for policymakers to address? In this new series, the 'Too Hard Basket', we dive deep into topics affecting Australians who often don't get a voice. There's shame, there's stigma, and there are swathes of secrecy, leaving these stories often untold.

    Disability advocates say NDIS reforms were developed without consultation

    Australia's Parliament has approved new laws that govern the operation of the National Disability Insurance Scheme. Minister Bill Shorten has also published a list that outlines what NDIS funding can and cannot be spent on from now on. But disability advocates say all of this has been "rapidly" developed with next to no engagement with the sector - and it might not even solve the problems it's supposed to address. In this episode of the Too Hard Basket, we take a closer look at what the changes are, and why disability groups are so concerned.

    "I'm not banging on about it": Shorten clashes with disability orgs over NDIS sex

    The National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) has long been the subject of debate and controversy. The current Labor government has been making moves to limit spending increases in the Scheme, and return it to what they say is its original purpose. As part of that process, NDIS Minister Bill Shorten has introduced legislation into Parliament to specifically exclude some services from the scheme - including sexual support services.

    First Nations people especially vulnerable to drug-related deaths

    The so-called 'war on drugs' has been waged in the US since at least the 1970s, when then President Richard Nixon signed the Controlled Substances Act and declared drug abuse as “public enemy number one.” In Australia, there have been similar efforts to battle drug trafficking and use. As prescription opioids overtake heroin as a public health emergency, those efforts have expanded to restrict the control and supply of those substances too. First Nations people have been much more heavily impacted by substance issues and official responses than the non-Indigenous population. In this Episode of The Too Hard Basket, and in the final story of a three part series on drugs in Australia, we look at how these issues play out for Indigenous communities.

    Is Australia winning 'the war on drugs'?

    Most of us might be familiar with the term 'the war on drugs'. In the US, it's been waged since the 1970s, when then President Richard Nixon signed the Controlled Substances Act and declared drug abuse as “public enemy number one.” In Australia, there have been similar efforts historically to battle drug trafficking and drug use. On today's episode of The Too Hard Basket, we look at how state and federal governments are now handling these issues, and if a hardline approach is still the answer. This is the second story in a three part series on drugs in Australia.

    Opioid use in Australia: have government restrictions avoided the crisis faced in the USA?

    Most of us might be familiar with the term 'the war on drugs'. In the US, it's been waged since the 1970s, when then President Richard Nixon signed the Controlled Substances Act and declared drug abuse as “public enemy number one.” But today, it's not so much illicit drugs but prescription medication that the US is fighting, with deaths from prescription opioids reaching crisis levels. Authorities in Australia have been keen to avoid a similar emergency here, introducing restrictions in 2020 to limit their supply. In this episode of the Too Hard Basket series, SBS looks at how effective these changes have been so far - and what else needs to be done. This is the first in a three-part series investigating drugs in Australia.
