Hi Jocelyn
I just tried calling but you're working off site?
Happy to discuss about Mr Ashmore - I'm unaware of any FOI, because that wouldn't come through the
Feedback team.
s 22
The record can be printed by any staff member through CFMS.
Please let me know if you have any questions.

Hi John
Can we discuss I understand that Mr Ashmore has an FOI in on his previous response.  I am concerned that we
have a lot of departmental resources responding to Mr Ashmore but no coordination.

Hi Jocelyn
Mr Ashmore has contacted the General Enquiries on 30 July, asking about the two 'complaints' he lodged in late
June.
As you may recall, these were forwarded on following a discussion we had when Mt Ashmore first sent them to
DVA (see attached email).
Can you advise on this - I see that they have not been registered in CFMS.
Thanks
John

Hi DVA,
