Thank you for your email to the National Disability Insurance Agency
(NDIA) Freedom of Information (FOI) team.
If your email relates to an FOI application made under the
Commonwealth Freedom of Information Act 1982 (FOI Act), we will respond to
you as soon as practicable.
This email address is for applications under the FOI Act only. Our team is
unable to respond to non-FOI related enquiries sent to this email address.
Any correspondence received that is not related to an FOI request will not
be responded to or forwarded.
Please be aware: due to a high volume of requests, our ability to respond
to you in a timely manner has been affected. However, we will action your
request as soon as possible. In addition, we are currently experiencing
delays in processing FOI requests. As a result, whilst we will endeavour
to process your matter within the [1]legislative deadlines, we may need to
ask for an extension of time. We appreciate your understanding if this is
required.
The NDIA has a number of other ways to access the documents and
information that we hold. Please visit our [2]Access to
Information webpage to find out more about accessing information
through:
o The [3]myplace portal for participants
o The [4]myplace portal for providers
o The [5]Participant Information Access (PIA) scheme
o The [6]Information Publication Scheme (IPS)
You can also request data and statistics outside of the FOI Act. Please
visit our [7]Data and insights webpage page for further information.
Information about how to make an FOI request can be found on our
website: [8]Freedom of Information | NDIS. The FOI Act sets out the
criteria that must be met for a request to be considered. The request you
send us must:
o be in writing
o state that the request is an application for the purposes of the FOI
Act
o provide enough information to allow us to identify the documents you
are requesting
o provide an address for reply, either electronic or hard copy.
If you have questions about making an FOI request, or to enquire about a
current FOI request, please email us with your preferred contact method
and an FOI Decision Maker will contact you.
Should you have a query unrelated to FOI, please contact the Agency by
email at [9][email address] or via webchat at [10]NDIA Web Chat
(ndis.gov.au). Alternatively, you can also contact us by phoning 1800 800

Thank you for your request of 3 March 2023, made under the Freedom of
Information Act 1982 (FOI Act), for copies of documents held by the

Processing timeframes
Please be advised that due to a large increase in FOI requests over recent
months, we are currently experiencing delays in processing matters. As a
result, we are unlikely to process your matter within the legislative

to this extension, you can expect to receive a decision from us on or
before 2 May 2023.
If you do not agree to the proposed extension of time, or you do not
provide a response to our request, we may need to seek an extension of
time with the Information Commissioner under section 15AB of the FOI Act.
Therefore, we ask that you please provide a response by 21 March 2023.
A 30-day statutory period for processing your request commenced from 4
March 2023, in accordance with section 15(2A)(c) of the FOI Act.
Therefore, the legislated deadline is 2 April 2023.
Processing periods may be extended if we need to consult with third
parties or for other reasons. We will advise you if this happens.
