The National Disability Insurance Scheme Amendment (Securing the NDIS for Future Generations) Bill 2026 has now passed the Senate.
We know that news of further changes to the NDIS may bring uncertainty and concern for people with disability, their families and carers, particularly for those who have already experienced significant change within the Scheme.
Kin Disability Advocacy did not support the Bill in its current form, and we share many of the concerns raised by people with disability, families, advocates and organisations across the disability community about what these reforms may mean in practice.
While amendments were made before the Bill passed, there is still important detail to come about how the changes will be implemented and what they will mean for individual participants.
For now, we encourage our community to be cautious about some of the information and commentary circulating about what the changes may mean for individual NDIS participants. We don't want people to feel unnecessarily frightened or uncertain before the details are clear.
What we can say is that Kin will continue to be here.
We will closely follow the implementation of these reforms, listen to the experiences and concerns of our community, and continue to advocate strongly where people's rights, access to supports or wellbeing may be affected.
We believe changes to the NDIS must be fair, transparent, and implemented with people with disability, not simply around them.
As we understand more, we will continue to share clear and considered information with our community.
