As mentioned in the April edition, from 1 July 2026, we will introduce:
- Mandatory registration for Supported Independent Living (SIL) providers
- Mandatory registration for NDIS digital platform providers
- New NDIS Practice Standards for SIL supports and services.
The Reform Hub provides all the latest information and updates on what you need to do as a SIL or NDIS digital platform provider, or what you need to know as a participant who receives these NDIS services. The latest resources available on the Reform Hub include:
- New SIL Practice Standards
- Provider transition pathway diagrams charting the journey of mandatory NDIS registration for SIL providers and NDIS digital platform providers
- Updated frequently asked questions (FAQs) detailing transition requirements for mandatory registration of SIL and NDIS digital platform providers.
These reforms support improved quality, consistency and safeguarding, and promote the delivery of participant-centred rights-based supports across the NDIS. They strengthen oversight and regulation of SIL and platform providers in response to emerging and longstanding quality, safety and integrity issues.
More detail about our implementation timeline and the work underway to prepare for the reform is included in our Regulatory Reform Roadmap and Reform Pathway.
What happens next
We will continue to share updates as we approach 1 July 2026. These will include updates on transitional arrangements and what actions are required of SIL and platform providers who currently deliver or would like to deliver these services in the NDIS.
We will be running workshops in June for interested providers to learn about the process for registering. You can register your interest and we will be in contact when the sessions are scheduled.
Key takeaway
We have published some useful resources on our Reform Hub ahead of mandatory registration for SIL and platform providers, which will take place from 1 July 2026.
