Increasing prevalence of children with disabilities in Australia accompanied by lack of research makes this study imperative. The innovative approach adopted in this project means there will be a number of national benefits resulting from this study. - It will help governments in Australia make more informed policies toward providing assistance to affected families, which will reduce the burden on families caring for children with disabilities. - More informed policy will improve the well-being of such children. - It will advance knowledge in the fields of labour and health economics, and econometrics, and hence enhance Australian research reputation in the fields.
