Unions warn Allan Government: do not abolish Victoria’s Disability Regulator
Professionals Australia is calling on the Allan Government to withdraw its plan to abolish Victoria’s dedicated Disability Regulator, a move that would dismantle specialist oversight and put disabled people at greater risk. The Government intends to merge the Victorian Disability Worker Commission, the Disability Worker Registration Board, and the Disability Services Commissioner into a single mega-regulator responsible for hundreds of services, including childcare, homelessness, domestic violence and broader social services.

GP ADHD management could save NSW families thousands of dollars each year: RACGP
Patients with ADHD will save between $500–1400 in out-of-pocket costs each year thanks to NSW Government reforms allowing GPs to manage and diagnose the condition, according to the Royal Australian College of GPs (RACGP). And with genetic factors estimated to explain 70–80% of ADHD, accessing care through a GP could save a family with three ADHD patients $1500–4200 per year.
