Dear Mr Sweeney

Acknowledgement of Request
I refer to your request dated 24 July 2020 under the

Securities and Investments Commission (
ASIC).
Your request seeks access to the fol owing:
“The documents I seek are:

Pages from the Consolidated Deed of Variation dated 6 May 1958
that cover Regulation or Rule 29 which contain the improved formula
for the pension benefit and the definition of “salary” for
superannuation purposes;
(i )
Pages from the Deeds of Variation dated 3 July 1961, 3 August 1965
and 3 September 1970 that cover amending the definition of “salary”
for superannuation purpose in Regulation 29.”
As your request was received on 24 July 2020 and the 30-day statutory period for
processing the request commenced on the day after the date of receipt, you should
therefore expect a decision to be made by 24 August 2020.
The 30-day processing period may be extended should ASIC find it is necessary to
consult third parties, where a charge is to be imposed on the processing of the request
or for other reasons. You wil be advised if there are changes to the 30-day processing
period.
Please note that any documents released to you under the FOI Act may later be
published online on the ASIC disclosure log in accordance with our obligation to do so
under the Act. This requirement to publish released documents is subject to certain
exceptions for example, personal or business information wil not be published where it
would be unreasonable.
