Dear Paul Carter
Freedom of Information Request: Acknowledgement
Thank you for your request of 15 April 2025, made under the Freedom of
Information Act 1982 (FOI Act), for copies of documents/information held
by the National Disability Insurance Agency (NDIA).
Scope of your Request
You have requested access to:
“…The consultation request letter (27 February 2025) for FOI REF
24/25-0930 stated: "The relevant line area has conducted a preliminary
search for documents which are likely to be relevant to your request. They
have advised that there are around 35 cases, each with approximately 480
Knowledge Articles in each case." - As referred to there, please provide a
list of the case types…”
Irrelevant Information
Section 22 of the FOI Act allows an Agency to redact information from
documents if that information would reasonably be regarded as irrelevant
to a request for access.
Given the nature of your request, it does not seem that NDIA staff
members’ surnames and contact details would be relevant to you. Can you
please send me a reply email confirming that such details are irrelevant
to your request for access?
Processing Timeframes
In accordance with section 15(5)(b) of the FOI Act, a 30-day statutory
period for processing your request commenced from 16 April 2025. This
30-day period expired on 15 May 2025.
We apologise for the delay in processing your request, it is currently
taking us a little longer than 30 days to process FOI requests.
Disclosure Log
Subject to certain exceptions, documents released under the FOI Act will
be published on the NDIA’s disclosure log located on our website.
If you have any concerns about the publication of the documents you have
requested, please contact me.
Next steps
Your request will be allocated to an authorised FOI decision-maker. The
decision-maker may need to contact you to discuss a range of matters,
including refining the scope of your request.
We will contact you using the email address you have provided. Please
advise if you would prefer us to use an alternative means of contact.
In the meantime, if you have any questions or need help, please contact us
at [1][NDIA request email].
