Disability News Insights

At 2ig, we keep a close watch on the media, policy developments, and legislative changes that matter most to the disability community. Our goal is simple: to bring you the key messages, important reforms, and practical information you need in one place, every edition.

This edition has a particular focus on the Federal Budget, due to be handed down on 12 May 2026. Understanding what the government prioritises and where it chooses to spend or save is essential context for everyone working in or relying on the disability sector over the coming 12 months.

New Legislation: Strengthening the Integrity of the NDIS

A major legislative milestone was reached on 1 April 2026, when the National Disability Insurance Scheme Amendment (Integrity and Safeguarding) Bill 2026 passed Parliament. Media coverage throughout the following week highlighted its broad scope and significance for both participants and providers.

Is Your Organisation Ready for What's Coming?

The May budget will land in weeks. For disability organisations, the implications for funding, for workforce, for service models, and for employment pathways could be significant. The question is whether your organisation is positioned to respond, adapt, and lead through what comes next. That's where 2ig comes in.

2ig works alongside disability, NDIS, social enterprise, and for-purpose organisations to support transformation. We don't just consult we come in, sit alongside your team, and help you understand exactly where your organisation stands and what it needs to do next.

Looking Ahead

All eyes now turn to 12 May 2026. The federal budget will be the single most important indicator of where the government stands on disability on NDIS spending, on workforce wages, on supported employment, and on the direction of reform.

2ig will provide a detailed analysis of the budget as soon as it is handed down. In the meantime, we will continue monitoring legislative changes, sector advocacy, and the political landscape so that you are always informed and prepared.
