I move:

That this bill be now read a second time.

I thank the House for its patience with the introduction of these many associated bills. They are all designed to do one thing, and that is to ensure that Australians living with disabilities get the support they need, that the funding is there, that certainty is provided and that we do the right thing by our mates.

This bill forms part of a package of bills that support the government's commitment to fully fund the NDIS.

Full details of the bill are contained in the explanatory memorandum.

Debate adjourned.
