National Disability Insurance Scheme Act 2013

The National Disability Insurance Scheme rules may make provision for or in relation to standards concerning the quality of supports or services to be provided by registered NDIS providers.

Non‑compliance with the NDIS Practice Standards by registered NDIS providers constitutes a breach of condition of registration (see paragraph 73F(2)(c) and section 73J).

Rules made for the purposes of subsection (1) are to be known as the NDIS Practice Standards.

Without limiting subsection (1), the NDIS Practice Standards may deal with the following:

standards to be complied with to become a registered NDIS provider;

standards to be complied with to remain a registered NDIS provider;

matters relating to assessing compliance with the standards;

matters relating to the screening of workers employed or otherwise engaged by registered NDIS providers or of members of the key personnel of registered NDIS providers.
