This FOI release provides expenditure data for assistive technologies distributed across Australian states and territories from 2021-2022 through 2023-2024. The disclosure shows budget allocations broken down by state health regions, with NSW receiving the largest total allocation at $13.1 million in 2023-2024, followed by Queensland at approximately $10.9 million. The data demonstrates significant year-on-year funding increases across all jurisdictions, with expenditure more than tripling from 2021-2022 to 2023-2024 across most regions. Individual state totals include ACT ($250,505), NT ($53,299), and SA ($1.3 million) for the most recent financial year. The document appears incomplete, with the South Australia regional breakdown cut off. The data reflects resource allocation patterns for assistive technology programs but does not contain information about specific device types, clinical outcomes, or program effectiveness metrics
