Hi s47F
 
Further to our phone conversation this afternoon, I’m still waiting to be notified by PwC that the
information they’ve prepared is ready and available to send across to you.
 
I do apologise for this unexpected delay, particularly since I had asked PwC to have the
information ready to share with the FWO by close of business today.
 
Given this late hour and the 4 October public holiday in NSW, I think it’s best to assume that the
information you requested won’t reach you until Tuesday, 5 October. I hope this doesn’t pose
any issues at your end but happy to discuss further on Tuesday morning if needed.
 
Thanks for your patience and I hope you have a good weekend, albeit not a long one.
 
Kind regards,
Cassie

Dear s47F
 




 
Thank you for your time on the phone last week. As discussed, I am reviewing the materials
provided by the ABC.
 
In relation to the remediation methodology, can you please provide an explanation of how the
‘better off overall’ provisions were tested for the buyout employees?
 
Annexure A provides a list of the buyout employees but does not clarify which of these
employees were identified as being underpaid and how this was tested.
 
I would appreciate it if you could provide this information this week. 
 
Kind regards,
