There's risk the needs of disabled people won't be met as their ministry is carved up.

Support services are moving to the Ministry of Social Development, after a review found a lack of control over funding and services at Whaikaha.

Disability Support Network CEO Peter Reynolds says the sector has been struggling for over a decade - and doesn't have faith in MSD.

"As recently as June 30, three contracts expired across a couple of hundred providers. No replacement contracts were issued for two months - that's two months that those providers didn't receive any funding."
