  10. COAG – applied principles – housing and community infrastructure • The NDIS will be responsible for support to assist individuals with disability to live independently in the community • The NDIS will be responsible for home modifications for accessibility specific to individuals in private dwellings, and in some cases in legacy public and community housing dwellings on a case-by-case basis • The NDIS is also responsible for user costs of capital in some situations where a person requires an integrated housing and support model and the cost of the accommodation component exceeds a reasonable contribution from individuals.
