Dear FOI,
Hi Judy,
Just confirming its OK to roll the 4 request that come under you purview into 1.
My clarification to limit the scope should assist you to re evaluate if the extension is needed.
I hope to get a timely response due to the negative health impact of masks as shown in dozens of global studies ignored by Chant and Hazzard.
The public interest is best served by presenting them with the facts.

Fact: staff in your 4 depts are required to wear masks.
QUERY was a biosecurity control order issued by a judge for each person directing them to wear a mask as laid out in BiosecurityAct2015/61 federal legislation? If so I request the docs minus personal names to protect privacy, that Show these control orders were issued.

If no control orders were issued, staff should be immediately advised it is a choice and there is no penalty or punitive action if the do not wear it. The 4 depts are acting illegally if they fail to remedy this.

Yours sincerely,

verifysp
