I refer to your request under the Freedom of Information Act 1982 (FOI
Act) for access to documents.

 

Please provide all documents that related to the costs charged to the
National Disability Insurance Scheme and or any other Government
Department (including costs worn by the department in relation to the
commonwealth defending the case 2018/5420 Morrison-Francis and National
Disability Insurance Agency within the Administration Appeals Tribunal. 

 

This includes any documents that relate to the hours worked and have not

request.

 

To be abundantly clear this request covers the period 01.01.2010 -
26.09.2019

If you disagree with this interpretation of your request, please let me
know in writing as soon as possible.

 

The department received your request on 26 September 2019 and the 30 day
statutory period for processing your request commenced from the day after
that date.  You should therefore expect a decision from us by 26 October
2019.  However, the period of 30 days may be extended if the department
needs to consult third parties or for other reasons. We will advise you if
this happens.

 

Where the documents within the scope of an FOI request include the
personal information of junior officers of the department or other
government agencies, the department’s practice is to not disclose that
information (eg, names, contact details). The names and contact details of
senior officers will generally be disclosed. In addition, duplicates and
incomplete email chains within the scope of the FOI request will be
excluded.

 

Please note that, with some exceptions (such as personal information),
