It’s the question we’ve been asking for months: what supports will be funded by Thriving Kids?

We’re getting closer and closer to the answers.

Minister Mark Butler recently published the final report from the Thriving Kids Advisory Group. While this report is technically advice to the government, the Minister is one of the co-chairs. So it’s pretty safe to assume that the Federal government endorses this vision of the program!

The final design, though, will be outlined in agreements with states and territories.

In this article, we dive deep into the Advisory Group’s model and what this might mean for NDIS eligibility.

The Senate Order of Business indicates that NDIS Minister, Senator McAllister will introduce the National Disability Insurance Scheme Amendment (Integrity and Safeguarding) Bill 2025 this afternoon.

The Bill seeks to strengthen the NDIS Commission’s compliance and enforcement powers and introduce new statutory duties for providers and key personnel. It also aims to expand the scope of regulatory oversight through measures such as stronger penalties, anti-promotion orders and tighter information-gathering powers.

It was signalled that an exposure draft would be released first, however today’s introduction suggests the Government is moving ahead sooner than expected. These proposed reforms recently went out for consultation so we will be watching closely to see whether stakeholder feedback has shaped any changes to the final version.

Stay tuned for updates as we unpack the new Bill when it lands.
