4.1 Guide to Registered Nurse Hours
Dear National Disability Insurance Agency,
I am requesting access under the Freedom of Information Act 1982 (FOI Act), to the following documents:
1. 4.1 Guide to Registered Nurse Hours
(internal link: https://intranet.ndiastaff.ndia.gov.au/s... )
3. If the document I have named are no longer in use, please provide the last version of the document that was in use AND the new different document which supersedes it.
FURTHER INFORMATION TO CLARIFY AND AID YOUR SEARCH:
This document titles and links were obtained from the document titled ‘Standard Operating Procedure - Guided Planning Questions’ (V4.0 2020-07-30) which was uploaded to the Disability Royal Commission’s document library at this link: https://disability.royalcommission.gov.a...
I assume this link was mistakenly left active when the document was provided to the royal commission and submitted into evidence. I am obviously unable to view the documents found at these internal links myself as I do not have a staff login. If for whatever reason the links I have copied and supplied to you in this FOI are now non-functional, please refer back to your own copy of the SOP mentioned for the current direct link to the documents I am requesting.
I am also explicitly asking that you please, do not waste my time AND your own by providing me with a link to another publicly available NDIS webpage or the Our Guidelines as the decision documents for this request. I know how to use google, if that was what I was asking for I would already have found it. I have provided you with the EXACT TITLES AND LINK to an INTERNAL DOCUMENT and that is what I expect to receive in your decision, you should have no difficulty locating what I am asking for.
Thank you in advance for your cooperation.
Kind regards,
Gemma Jones
