The Parliamentary Budget Office has released the Report no. 01/2018 ‘Disability Support Pension – Historical and projected trends‘.

The Disability Support Pension (DSP) represents a large component of social security spending for the Australian government. The report examines the factors underlying the recent decline in DSP expenditure, highlighting the impacts of changes in government policy. It uses analysis of historical trends to update projections of DSP expenditure over the next decade. The report also examines a number of DSP expenditure projection scenarios over the medium term.
