Dear Mr Smith
Freedom of Information Request - Decision
I refer to your request to the Department of the Treasury (the
Treasury) on 31 July 2020, for access under
the
Freedom of Information Act 1982 (the
FOi Act) to the following:
A document that contains a list of all the position/job titles of every non-APS contractor working
within your department.
e.g. a position title may be: 'security guard: or 'consultant: or 'APS3 FOi officer: etc.
You may omit repeating a position title when there exist multiple contractors who have that position
title. Additionally, if it would not be too onerous, please indicate the number of contractors that hold
each position title.
If no such document exists please produce a document containing the information under s17.
I am an authorised decision maker under section 23 of the FOi Act.
Decision
The Treasury holds no documents within the scope of your request.
I arranged for officers in my division to search Treasury records for material relevant to your request. I am
satisfied that no such documents exist.
Section 17(1)(c) of the FOi Act provides that an agency can produce a written document containing the
requested information, by the use of a computer or other equipment that is ordinarily available for
retrieving or collating stored information. The Treasury does not store the information you have requested
in a manner in which we are able to produce a computer generated document to fulfil this request under
section 17 of the FOi Act.
I am, therefore, refusing your request under section 24A{l) of the FOi Act.
