Priority Plan Management

Mandatory registration for Supported Independent Living (SIL) and digital platform providers has commenced today, 1 July 2026.

This means that every NDIS-funded SIL and platform provider must apply to register with the NDIS Quality and Safeguards Commission.

New SIL Practice Standards have also come into effect for SIL providers.

Together, these reforms strengthen safeguards, improve quality and consistency, and support participant-centred, rights-based outcomes across the NDIS.

Find out more about these reforms via the link (Reform Hub) in the comments.

Short-term accommodation (STA) is an NDIS support that gives participants time apart from their usual care arrangements. We’ve made some changes to help participants only claim for the supports they actually receive.

From today, we’ve replaced the previous fixed daily rate with separate line items for the costs of:

👉 participant accommodation

👉 support worker accommodation

👉 support hours from a support worker.

Participants who use STA supports should talk to their providers about what this change means for them and any future bookings they may have.
