NDIS - Register of Security Designated Positions
Dear National Disability Insurance Agency,
1. Does the NDIA have a current Register of Security Designated Positions?
2. Does every person in the security designated role have a current Australian government security clearance, appropriate to the level of designation?
3. If not, how many waiver/s have been requested and granted for these Security Designated Positions?
4. How many are contractors/labour hires? Both questions, listed and waivered.
5. When was the NDIA's Register of Security Designated Positions first created?
6. Has the NDIA had, maintained and updated a Register of Security Designated Positions since creation in 2013?
Yours faithfully,
Florence
