DisabilityCare HQ to be in Geelong THE headquarters for the national disability insurance scheme agency, DisabilityCare, will be in Geelong. Richard Marles, federal Labor MP for Corio, which takes in Geelong, says the announcement is good for the regional Victorian city after Ford last month announced it will close its automotive manufacturing plant in three years. "This is very significant in terms of the federal government and the way it goes about governing, because this will really be the first serious, national federal agency which will have headquarters in regional Australia," he told ABC radio on Monday. That's a real feather in Geelong's cap. Around 350 people will work at the Geelong headquarters once DisabilityCare is fully rolled out by 2018. All states and territories, bar Western Australia, have signed onto the scheme.
