The NDIS is being rewritten. We’re not being asked – we’re being told.

Physical Disability Australia has reviewed the NDIS Amendment Bill 2026. What we found: tighter access, narrower definitions, repeated reassessments for lifelong conditions, and funding uncertainty for wheelchairs, home modifications, and the supports that keep us alive.

This isn’t reform. It’s exclusion with better branding.

We’ve published our full position statement: why this Bill breaks the promise of the NDIS, how it breaches our rights under international law, and what must change before it passes.
