FOI, Department of Social Services

Dear Karen,

 

I refer to your correspondence received by the Department of Social
Services (the Department) on 2 June 2022, in which you requested access
under the Commonwealth Freedom of Information Act 1982 (FOI Act) to:

 

“…the cost benefit analysis of the transfer of the Information, Linkages
and Capacity Building (ILC) grant program from the National Disability
Insurance Agency (NDIA) to the Department of Social Services (DSS) that
was undertaken prior to the transfer.”

 

Removal of non-SES staff names and contact details

I note that you have already advised of your agreement to removal of all
names and personal information of any staff contained in any documentation
released. Thank you.

 

Decision due

The statutory period for processing your request is 30 days commencing
from the day after your request was received. If the due date falls on a
Saturday, Sunday, or public holiday, in accordance with the FOI guidelines
issued by the Australian Information Commissioner, the timeframe will
expire on the first day following which is none of those days.

 

In accordance with paragraph (b) of subsection 15(5) of the FOI Act, a
decision on your request currently falls due on Monday 4 July 2022.

 

When the processing period may be extended or suspended

 The current due date may be extended by up to 30 days if agreed by you
(section 15AA of the FOI Act). The due date may also be extended by an
additional 30 days in each instance, if your request is considered
voluminous or complex (section 15AB of the FOI Act) or if the Department
is required to undertake a third party consultation (sections 26A, 27 or
27A of the FOI Act). If any of these extensions apply, the Department will
notify you.  

Additionally, there are occasions where the time to process your request
may be suspended. This will usually take place if a practical refusal
consultation process takes place (section 24AB of the FOI Act) or if a
charges notice is issued to process your request (section 29 of the FOI
Act). If the Department decides that either of these apply to your
request, the Department will notify you.

The Department will correspond with you by email in relation to your FOI
request. 

 

Should you have any queries about this matter, please do not hesitate to
contact the FOI team via email at [1][Department of Social Services request email].

 

Yours sincerely,

 

DSS FOI Team
