Good morning,

Freedom of Information (FOI reference 140462)

I refer to your request for documents under the Freedom of Information Act
1982 (the FOI Act), received by the department on 17 October 2025, in
which you sought access to:

Media has reported on the existence of a long term trial of Point to Point
cameras on the Calder Freeway.

[1]https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://midl...

[2]https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www....

[3]https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://midl...

This appears to be a trial of different types of camera and technologies,
with multiple different cameras installed at various locations.

I request access to the following:

 1. Documents outlining the scope and intended aims of the trial of point
to point cameras.

 2. Documents outlining the results of the trial of point to point
cameras, comparing different camera and system types against aims and
against measures of accuracy.

 3. Documents outlining the reliability of point to point cameras and
systems involved in the trial.

I am not seeking the personal information of individuals or businesses
that are not part of the public service or the government in any of the
documents, so please redact any references to people's names & contact
details.

Also, any duplicates of documents, where the final version or
correspondence includes the entire thread (for example, I do not require
each email in a conversation if the final email contains all the previous
conversations).

I also consent to exclude the following from my request:

o drafts of any documents that are in scope that are released in full,
o duplicates of documents that are in scope,
o personal information of members of the public,
o contact details for teams, internal to the department and other
agencies,
o personal information belonging to officers of the department and other
government agencies (such as names, email addresses and telephone
numbers).

Application fee

Section 17(2A) of the FOI Act requires that an application fee of $33.60
accompanies a request for access to documents. The application fee may be
waived in circumstances of hardship. If you wish to seek waiver of the
fee, you will need to provide evidence of hardship, such as a current
healthcare or pension card.

The fee can be paid by credit/debit card, cheque or money order. If you
wish to pay by credit/debit card, please submit a new request via the FOI
portal to the Department of Justice and Community Safety at
[4]https://online.foi.vic.gov.au/foi/reques... and write that it is to
pay the application fee for FOI request 140462.

Please note your request will not be considered valid and will therefore
not be processed until payment or application for waiver is received and
approved. 

If you have any queries, please contact this office by email to –
[5][Victorian Department of Justice and Community Safety request email].

Kind regards,

William
