Dear Gladys

 

Freedom of Information Request: Acknowledgement

Thank you for your request of 3 February 2022, made under the Freedom of
Information Act 1982 (FOI Act), for copies of documents held by the
National Disability Insurance Agency (NDIA).

 

Scope of your request

You have requested access to the following documents:

 

“How many non Australian Citizens have been employed or contracted to the
NDIS since establishment?

How many non Australian Citizens are currently employed or contracted to
the NDIA?”

 

Unless you advise otherwise, we will take it that you agree to the names
and contact details of NDIA staff being excluded from the scope of your
request (that is, the information will be treated as irrelevant).

 

Processing timeframes

A 30-day statutory period for processing your request commenced from 4
February 2022, in accordance with section 15(2A)(c) of the FOI Act. You
should, therefore, expect a decision from us by 7 March 2022.

 

This period may be extended if we need to consult with third parties or
for other reasons. We will advise you if this happens.

 

Charges

We may apply a processing charge to your request and will advise you as
soon as practicable if a charge is payable.

 

Disclosure Log

Information released under the FOI Act may be published on the NDIA’s
disclosure log located on our website, subject to certain exceptions.

If you have any concerns about the publication of information you have
requested, please contact us.

 

Further help

Please contact us at [1][NDIA request email] if you have any questions or need
