Dear ZF,
Regarding your attached Freedom of Information (FOI) request to the University.
Unfortunately, your request, as it stands, does not provide such information as is reasonably necessary to enable a responsible officer to identify the document(s) requested, as is required by section 15(2)(b) of the Freedom of Information Act 1982 (FOI Act).
A failure to comply with this requirement is classified as a ‘practical refusal reason’ for which a ‘request consultation process’ under the FOI Act is required.
However, in an effort to informally resolve this failure, I request that you refine the scope of your request and provide the following information so that a search can be conducted to locate the documents you are requesting access to:
· Under the FOI Act, I would like to access the number of international students currently enrolled at the ANU, who are citizens of the Republic of China.
o Please clarify if you are only seeking access regarding students who are citizens of the Republic of China (Taiwan)?
o Please clarify what specific documents you are seeking.
o Are you seeking access to documents regarding students enrolled at the date of your request? Please advise of a specific time frame.
Your sincerely
Inga Mildner
