NDIS Supports rules

Changes to NDIS Rules

We are making changes to the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) to improve the experience for participants and help make sure it is fair and sustainable for the future.

Last year, the Australian Parliament passed changes to the NDIS Act. These changes set the direction for how the NDIS will improve.

It created the structure for new rules to improve the way people experience the NDIS.

We are working closely with the NDIA, state and territory governments, and with people with disability, to create these new rules.

Find out more about the new rules, and how we’re working with the disability community to develop them, on our Changes to NDIS legislation page.
