Disability Royal Commission Progress Report 2025
How we are implementing the recommendations
Addressing the Disability Royal Commission’s recommendations is part of a broader program of reform.
Implementation will progress in a staged and sustainable manner alongside reform in response to:
- the Independent Review of the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS)
- ongoing implementation of actions under Australia’s Disability Strategy 2021–2031
- state, territory and local government disability strategies and inclusion plans.
Ongoing engagement and partnership with people with disability and their representatives will inform and drive approaches to implementation. This will occur through existing mechanisms such as:
- Australia’s Disability Strategy Advisory Council and state and territory equivalent councils
- Disability Representative Organisations forums
- issue-specific collaboration and engagement.
Our approach will ensure reform implementation is shaped by the diverse experience, knowledge, skills and contributions of people with disability across Australia.
How we are monitoring progress
To ensure accountability for tracking the progress of recommendations, all governments have agreed to annual reporting to the Disability Reform Ministerial Council, and the community, on the implementation of recommendations.
