About the NDIS Commission

The National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) supports participants across Australia.

Participants are people with disability who take part in the NDIS.

The NDIS Commission makes sure participants:

  • are safe
  • get good quality services.

Quality is about receiving good services that:

  • meet the needs of people with disability
  • give people with disability choice and control.

We make sure NDIS providers and workers are doing a good job.

NDIS providers support people with disability by delivering a service.

NDIS providers and workers must treat you:

  • fairly
  • equally.

We help participants speak up for themselves if someone:

  • hurts them

  • treats them badly

  • doesn’t give them the support they promised.

We ask that NDIS providers and workers do the right thing by following certain rules.

If they don’t follow these rules, we will:

  • help them learn about the rules

  • ask them to fix their problems

  • ask them to pay money for not following the rules

  • stop them from providing certain NDIS services.
