    The National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) is now in place across Australia, following its final implementation in the state of Western Australia on 1 December 2020.

    The NDIS Commission commenced the scheme roll-out on 1 July 2018 in New South Wales and South Australia, and 1 July 2019 in Tasmania, Victoria, the Australian Capital Territory, Queensland and the Northern Territory.

    With NDIS Commission now operating in every state and territory, it means that: 

    ·  The NDIS Code of Conduct applies to all providers and workers across Australia

    ·  Registered providers need to meet NDIS Practice Standards, report certain types of incidents, report restrictive practices, and have a strong complaints system in place

    ·  NDIS participants can contact the NDIS Commission to raise a concern or make a complaint about the quality or safety of their NDIS-funded services or support, no matter where they are in Australia

    NDIS: Strong protections for NDIS participants are now in place across Australia
