As the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) moves towards full rollout, it is timely to describe the nature of the policy framework and environment driving outcomes in order to better respond to commentary and learnings. To do this, this paper assesses Kingdon's Multiple Streams Approach as an explanatory model which will allow us to untangle the spaghetti of competing interests, issues and drivers of policy. Notwithstanding observed limitations, the paper finds that the potential for a policy window provides a powerful guide for actors to organise, as well as a mechanism for compromise. Further, the model suggests that key political drivers dominated the emergence and development of the NDIS and have thus shaped its current state.

完美与可能：Kingdon 的多流分析、政治和国家残疾保险计划

随着国家残疾保险计划 (NDIS) 走向全面推出，现在是时候描述政策框架的性质和环境驱动结果，以便更好地回应评论和学习。为此，本文将 Kingdon 的多流方法评估为一个解释模型，这将使​​我们能够解开相互竞争的利益、问题和政策驱动因素的意大利面条。尽管存在观察到的局限性，但该论文发现，政策窗口的潜力为参与者的组织提供了强有力的指导，以及妥协的机制。此外，该模型表明，关键的政治驱动因素主导了 NDIS 的出现和发展，从而塑造了其当前状态。
