How to review a planning decision

Published 16th April 2019

If you think a decision made by the National Disability Insurance Agency (NDIA) has made about you is wrong, you can submit request an application for internal review of a decision. Any person directly affected by a decision of the NDIA can request such an internal review.

There is a list of ‘reviewable decisions’ in the NDIS legislation. If the NDIA makes a decision about you that is on this list, you can request an internal review of that decision. Many decisions made by the NDIA are reviewable, including things like being accepted as a participant, the provision of reasonable and necessary supports, and becoming a registered provider of supports.

When you are told about an NDIA decision, you will be told how to request an internal review. A request for internal review of a decision must be made within three months of receiving notice of the decision from the NDIA.
The staff member who works on the internal review will not have been involved in the earlier decision. They may want to talk to you directly as part of this process.
