National Disability Insurance Agency Appeal Autism Statistics
Dear Administrative Appeals Tribunal,
This is an application for the purposes of the Freedom of Information Act 1982 (Cth) (the Act). Notices for this request under the Act may be sent to me by reply email.
Can you please provide me document(s) about your National Disability Insurance Scheme Division/Caseload. The document(s) only need to include those to the extent disclosable under the Act. I am requesting statistical information about your caseload relating to autism (including Asperger's) and the outcomes of those cases compared to other NDIS cases.
To help clarify the document(s) I am requesting, the documents could correspond to the below headings in a table.
* Time Period (Month, Quarter or whatever higher unit that is the smallest available)
* Autism-Related (Yes/No)
* Lodgements (following the same methodology as https://www.aat.gov.au/AAT/media/AAT/Fil... as accessed at 26 July 2023 10.15am AEST)
* Finalisations (same methodology as above)
* On hand at period end (same methodology as above)
* Proportion of applications finalised within 12 months of lodgement (same methodology as above)
* Median time to finalise (weeks) (same methodology as above)
* Proportion of applications in relation to which decision under review changed (same methodology as above)
It would be best if the document corresponded to a single table with these headings as a time-series.
Yours faithfully,
John Smith
