Dear Ms Pitney,

 

This email refers to your FOI request received on 11 March 2014 seeking access to:

 

A summary of all incident logs from the "self-harm" category involving persons under 18 years of age from January 2013 to present in the same format as FOI request "FA 13/12/00509

 

The current due date for your FOI request is 18 April 2014.

 

The purpose of this email is to advise you (as required under s.24AB of the FOI Act) that I consider a 'practical refusal reason' exists under s.24AA of the Freedom of Information Act 1982 (FOI Act) in relation to your request.  I have set out my reasons in the attached notice.

 

The FOI Act requires that you respond to this notice before the end of the consultation period, which is close of business Australian Eastern Standard Time (AEST) Monday 28 April 2014.

 

Please note that I have extended the consultation period by 5 days as I will be out of the office over the Easter break. I will be on leave from COB Thursday 17 April 2014 and returning Monday 28 April 2014. Any correspondence that you may send during this time, I will respond to on my return.

 

As advised in the notice, you may reply to me at this email address ([email address]).

 

Regards
