Understanding the NDIS Interim Behaviour Support Plan
An Interim Behaviour Support Plan (Interim BSP) is a short-term, NDIS-funded plan developed quickly — usually within 1–2 weeks — when a participant urgently needs behavioural support strategies. It provides immediate proactive and reactive strategies to reduce behaviours of concern and protect the safety of the participant and those around them, while a full Comprehensive Positive Behaviour Support Plan is being developed.
The NDIS requires that where a participant's support involves restrictive practices, an Interim BSP must be in place within a specified timeframe, even if the Comprehensive BSP has not yet been completed.
Interim BSP vs. Comprehensive BSP — What's the Difference?
When Is an Interim Behaviour Support Plan Required?
Urgent safety concern
When a participant's behaviours pose an immediate risk of harm to themselves or others and behavioural strategies are needed right away.
New NDIS plan
When an NDIS participant commences a new plan that includes Capacity Building funding and there is no existing Behaviour Support Plan in place.
New living environment
When a participant moves into new supported accommodation or changes their primary living or schooling environment and needs immediate behavioural support strategies.
Restrictive practices in use
When a participant's supports already include restrictive practices, an Interim BSP must be in place to meet NDIS Commission requirements while the Comprehensive BSP is developed.

Interim Behaviour Support Plan FAQs
An Interim Behaviour Support Plan (Interim BSP) is a short-term NDIS-funded document developed quickly when a participant urgently needs behavioural support strategies. It provides immediate proactive and reactive strategies while the full Comprehensive BSP is being developed.
An Interim BSP is a type of Behaviour Support Plan that uses a positive behaviour support framework, but it is shorter and less detailed than a Comprehensive Positive Behaviour Support Plan. The Interim BSP is replaced by the Comprehensive PBS Plan once the full Functional Behaviour Assessment is complete.
An Interim BSP is typically in place for 3–6 months while the Comprehensive BSP is being developed. The NDIS requires it to be replaced by a Comprehensive BSP as soon as practicable. Under the NDIS Practice Standards, restrictive practices included in an Interim BSP must be reviewed and formally authorised in the Comprehensive BSP.
Only a registered Specialist Behaviour Support provider (registered with the NDIS Quality and Safeguards Commission) can write an NDIS Interim BSP. Daar is a registered NDIS provider.
