Current information reviewed 17 July 2026. This page directs participants, families and providers to reliable sources for recent NDIS developments.

2026–27 pricing information

The NDIA’s pricing material includes a schedule effective from 1 July 2026 and a 2026–27 support catalogue. Participants should be told about proposed changes to existing service agreements and must agree before those changes are made.

Changes to planning and legislation

The NDIA publishes implementation information through its Changes to the NDIS hub. Changes may be introduced gradually, so verify commencement dates and how a change applies to an individual plan.

How to check an NDIS update

  1. Check the publication and effective dates.
  2. Use the original government page rather than a social-media summary.
  3. Identify whether the announcement applies to participants, providers or a particular support.
  4. Ask for individual advice when the effect is unclear.

New NDIS laws passed in August 2026

The NDIA says changes will be phased in. Participants can continue using plans and supports as usual unless the NDIA tells them that a change affects them.

Official announcement

Plan reassessment requests

From 27 August 2026, the NDIA states that only a participant, nominee or child representative can request a plan reassessment, using the correct form and supporting information. Plan variations remain available for relevant urgent, minor or short-term changes.

How to decide whether an update affects you

  1. Check the publication and effective dates.
  2. Read the official NDIS page, not only a social post or provider summary.
  3. Look for a direct message in the participant portal or from the NDIA.
  4. Ask the participant’s my NDIS contact about plan-specific effects.
  5. Review service agreements only where an actual service, price or claiming condition changes.

Access4All can explain how an operational change affects our services, but we do not make NDIA decisions or provide legal advice.
