Dear James Adams,
Freedom of Information Request No. (10) 22/23-1 – Notice of Decision on Access
I refer to your email received by the National Disability Insurance Agency on 13 September 2022,
and subsequently transferred to the NDIS Quality and Safeguards Commission (
the Commission), in
which you requested access under the
Freedom of Information Act 1982 (Cth) (
FOI Act) to the most
up-to-date list available of all registered service providers.
On 21 September your request for access was acknowledged and on 29 September 2022 the
document you requested was released to you on an informal basis. You were invited to withdraw
your FOI request but did not.
As an officer authorised under section 23 of the FOI Act I have decided to
grant you access to the
document. On considering your request, I have concluded that the document you seek access to is
not subject to any exemptions or conditional exemptions under Part IV of the FOI Act. I have also
decided it is not contrary to the public interest to release the document to you.
The document reflects information contained on a publicly available (and searchable) list of NDIS
providers who are registered with the NDIS Commission. The document released to you is correct
only as at 20 September 2022. I strongly encourage you to rely on the NDIS Commission’s publicly
available register for current information on registered NDIS providers as this register is updated
regularly.
A schedule showing the outcome of your request for access is at
Attachment A.

I have decided to publish details of the information released on the FOI Commission’s FOI disclosure
log. For further information about the Commission’s FOI disclosure log please refer to our website:
