Subject: Freedom of Information request - Wait Times for a Decision by the IC
From: Sun Shine <[FOI #7277 email]>
To: FOI requests at OAIC <[OAIC request email]>

Dear Office of the Australian Information Commissioner,

It has been about three years since I applied to the OAIC for a review. My request was in a queue for about two years, and it is still before the IC Commissioner pending a decision with no estimated completion date.

I request documents regarding throughput of FoI reviews at the OAIC for years 2018 - 2020. Specifically I seek documents that show the number of requests received, total backlog of pending requests and number of decisions made for each of the three years. Additionally please include information that indicates the age of requests when finally resolved.

Yours faithfully,
Sun Shine
