Currently waiting for a response from National Disability Insurance Agency, they should respond promptly and normally no later than January 13, 2025 (details).

Dear National Disability Insurance Agency,

I'm writing to request access to documents under the Freedom of Information Act 1982:
–––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––
(1). All knowledge articles and standard operating procedures on Replacement Supports. Please provide the most recent version of each document, whether this is a final or draft version. If it is a draft please include any comments or tracked changes for the document.

(2). All internal documents which decision-makers can consult during the decision-making process that list, provide examples, or otherwise outline what is (or is not) typically or definitively considered an NDIS Replacement Support.

Please include all identified documents in full. I consider all parts of a document to be relevant, except the surnames and contact details of staff, which can be removed.
–––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––

I can be contacted at this address if you require further information or clarification.

Thank you for your assistance.

Yours faithfully,

Clementine Saber
