Dear Bob
Freedom of Information Request: Acknowledgement
Thank you for your request of 21 July 2024, made under the Freedom of
Information Act 1982 (FOI Act), for access to a documents held by the
National Disability Insurance Agency (NDIA).
Scope of you request
You have requested access to:
“Document 7 in FOI 23.24-0026 describes itself as:
National Disability Injsurance Agency 2023. Behaviourally based
intervention for children on the autism spectrum: Asystematic review and
dose-response meta-analysis'. Prepared by E Ghezzi, A Lampit.
Please provide, under the provision of the Freedom on Information Act, all
documents relating to the contents, development, and disposition of this
document.”
Scope clarification
After beginning the processing of this matter, I have identified an issue
with the release ‘Document 7 in FOI 23.24-0026’. After thorough searches,
I have identified that this release was not publicly facing or published
on our disclosure log, nor were you the original applicant.
This leads me to believe that the referenced decision may be a
typographical error. Could you please confirm the FOI decision number you
are referencing in this request?
Processing timeframes
A 30-day statutory period for processing your request commenced from 22
July 2024. You should therefore expect a decision from us by 20 Augus
2024.
This period may be extended if we need to consult with third parties or
for other reasons. We will advise you if this happens.
Disclosure log
Information released under the FOI Act may be published on our disclosure
log, located on our website at [1]FOI Disclosure log | NDIS.
If you have any concerns about the publication of the information you have
requested, please contact us at [2][NDIA request email].
Irrelevant information
Section 22 of the FOI Act permits us to provide FOI applicants with access
to edited copies of documents with irrelevant material deleted. Can you
please contact us at [3][NDIA request email] to advise whether the surnames and
contact details of NDIA staff are irrelevant to your request? 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).
Further help
Please contact us at [4][NDIA request email] if you have any questions or need
help.
We will contact you using the email address you have provided. Please
advise us if you would prefer us to use another means of contact.

Dear National Disability Insurance Agency,
Please pass this on to the person who conducts Freedom of Information reviews.
I am writing to request an internal review of National Disability Insurance Agency's handling of my FOI request 'information showing the contents, development and disposition of the 2023 report/review Behaviourally based intervention for children on the autism spectrum'.
The repsonse refers to Attachment A in relation to requesting an internal review. However, Attachment seems to have been not attached.
I don't believe that the document referred to in my request was created without any other documentation. Surely, there was a suggestion somewhere that it be written. Surely, someone reviewed it ... and subsequently decided not to progress the matter.
I know for a fact that the authors of the document presented some of the contents of the document to A4 and Autism Alliance representatives at a meeting set up by the NDIA's Children's Taskforce. If nothing else exists, the presentation the authors of the document made in that meeting should be in the record (the meeting was told one of the authors is now an NDIA employee).
And the NDIA CEO had correspondence with A4's Co-convenor over the document. There I find it extremely unlikely that "the agency is satisfied that [such information about the disposition of the document] cannot be found or does not exist".
A full history of my FOI request and all correspondence is available on the Internet at this address: https://www.righttoknow.org.au/request/i...
Yours faithfully,
Bob Buckley
