Supported Independent Living (SIL) Commissioning Public Consultation Paper

The department is seeking feedback from people with disability, families, carers, advocates, providers, workers and other stakeholders on what good SIL supports look like and how governments can best support quality, choice, innovation and continuity of supports.

Your feedback will help government think about how the SIL market is working and whether changes may be needed in the future. This includes looking at participant outcomes, whether services are safe and reliable, whether providers can keep delivering services, and how any changes could work in practice.

The public consultation launched 11 August 2026, and will close on 13 September 2026.
