I'm not sure how it works in Australia, but in America Medicaid and social security take care of the almost all the basic needs of severely disabled people who are diagnosed as such before the age of 22.
You are right, though, it is VERY expensive for people who are unable to take care of their own basic needs, and financing this could be the real purpose of the lawsuit. I would expect that the Australian government probably funds their care along the same lines as the U.S. government, though, so I doubt it.
