On 19 December 2024 the Minister for Social Services, the Honourable Amanda Rishworth MP and the Assistant Minister for Competition, Charities and Treasury, the Honourable Dr Andrew Leigh MP announced the release of the first data from the National Disability Data Asset. Australia will now have a clearer research picture of people with disability aimed at improving their life outcomes, with the release of the first data from the National Disability Data Asset between Commonwealth, state and territory governments.

The National Disability Data Asset is a world first, co-governed asset that has for the first time, linked de-identified data in a way that has people with disability as its core focus.

This means that researchers from accredited organisations can now apply to access data. You can find the full media release on Minister Rishworth’s media page.
