The passing of the NDIS Amendment Bill 2024 represents a significant shift for Australia's disability sector, introducing crucial legislative and funding changes. This reform aims to manage costs effectively while enhancing service quality and sustainability through predefined participant budgets. The bill emphasizes improved efficiency and flexibility in fund allocation, alongside rigorous cost control measures. 

 

The 3rd NDIS Reform Forum, taking place on October 15-16, 2024, in Eora, Sydney, will delve into these new reforms. Discussions will focus on the implications of the NDIS Amendment Bill 2024, including its impact on cost management, eligibility criteria, and service delivery standards.

Attendees will gain insights into strategies for operational efficiency, regulatory compliance, and workforce development amidst these transformative changes. 

The significant regulatory reforms under the NDIS Amendment Bill 2024 make this event essential for industry stakeholders. The changes demand immediate adaptation to new funding models, compliance requirements, and quality standards.
