Revocation of deemed refused decision
Section 55G of the FOI Act allows for a revocation or variation of access refusal decision during
a review by the Information Commissioner (IC):
55G Procedure in IC review—revocation or variation of access refusal decision
(1) An agency or Minister may vary (or set aside and substitute) an access refusal
decision (the original decision) in relation to a request or an application under
section 48 at any time during an IC review of the access refusal decision if the
variation or substitution (the revised decision) would have an effect of:
(a) giving access to a document in accordance with the request; or
(b) relieving the IC review applicant from liability to pay a charge; or
(c) requiring a record of personal information to be amended or annotated in accordance
with the application.
Note: When making the revised decision, a consultation requirement under
section 26A (documents affecting Commonwealth-State relations etc.), 27 (business
documents) or 27A (documents affecting personal privacy) may apply.
(2) If an agency or Minister varies (or sets aside and substitutes) an access refusal
decision under subsection (1):
(a) the agency or Minister must, in writing, notify the Information Commissioner as soon
as practicable after the agency or Minister makes the variation or substitution; and
(b) the Information Commissioner must deal with the IC review application for review of
the original decision as if it were an IC review application for the review of the varied
or substituted decision, subject otherwise to this Part.
I have now set aside the deemed refused decision and substitute it with a revised decision
under section s55G(1)(a) of the FOI Act as set out below.
Authority to make decision
I am an officer authorised under section 23 of the FOI Act to make decisions in respect of
requests to access documents or to amend or annotate Departmental records.
Information considered
In reaching my decision, I have considered the following:
 the
Freedom of Information Act 1982;
 the Australian Information Commissioner’s FOI guidelines relating to access to
documents held by government;
 the terms of your request;
 Departmental documents, (identified below)
Revised decision
The Department has identified the documents that fall within the scope of your request.
My decision is to release in full the documents in the possession of the Department, which
falls within the scope of your request. A list of the documents is below for your reference.

Section 22
22 Deletion of exempt matter or irrelevant material
(1)
This section applies if:
(a)  an agency or Minister decides:
(i) to refuse to give access to an exempt document; or
(i )  that to give access to a document would disclose information that would
reasonably be regarded as irrelevant to the request for access; and
(b)  it is possible for the agency or Minister to prepare a copy (an edited copy) of
the document, modified by deletions, ensuring that:
(i)  access to the edited copy would be required to be given under section 11A
(access to documents on request); and
(i ) the edited copy would not disclose any information that would reasonably
be regarded as irrelevant to the request; and
(c)  it is reasonably practicable for the agency or Minister to prepare the edited
copy, having regard to:
(i)  the nature and extent of the modification; and
(ii)  the resources available to modify the document; and
(d)  it is not apparent (from the request or from consultation with the applicant) that
the applicant would decline access to the edited copy.

A number of documents contain information that is exempt under one or more sections of the
FOI Act. I  am able to provide you with an edited copy of those documents under section
22(1)(b).

In your acknowledgement letter, you were advised of the Department’s policy to consider
irrelevant to the scope of your request the personal details of staff engaged in some roles.
This includes their names, direct email addresses and also the mobile and direct work
telephone numbers of these staff. This material has therefore been removed under s 22
(1)(a)(i ) of the FOI Act from the documents that form the scope of your request.
