Second ReadingThe debate centred on the National Disability Insurance Scheme Amendment (Integrity and Safeguarding) Bill 2026, which aims to strengthen penalties for fraud and misconduct within the NDIS. Government members argued the bill was essential to protect participants from exploitation and ensure the scheme's long-term sustainability, citing previous systemic failures under the coalition. Opposition members supported the bill's integrity measures but criticised the government for insufficient action on broader sustainability issues, such as high cost growth and inconsistent plan management. The bill passed the second reading.
Outcome: The bill was agreed to on second reading.
