OFFICIAL
Dear Commonwealth Ombudsman,
I refer to the submissions of Professor Peter Tregear OAM submitted to the Senate inquiry into the quality of governance at Australian higher education providers:
https://www.aph.gov.au/DocumentStore.ashx?id=8a4b17b0-51e5-4f2b-a466-ecab74a3a1a1&subId=777818
On 21 September 2020, the investigator of Professor Peter Tregear's complaint about an inadequately handled PID (Ombudsman's reference 2019-402149) noted the following:
“Our Office will consider whether it is appropriate to make any further comments or suggestions to the ANU under section 12(4) of the Ombudsman Act with a view to improving future administration of the public interest disclosure scheme.”
Under the FOI Act, I request access to any and all documents setting out “further comments or suggestions to the ANU under section 12(4) of the Ombudsman Act” arising from the investigation, under the Ombudsman Act 1976 (Cth), that was terminated by the Ombudsman's delegate.
Please provide the document to me by return email.
Yours sincerely,
Robert
