Dear Diane

FREEDOM OF INFORMATION REQUEST – NOTIFICATION OF RECEIPT

I am writing to notify you that the Therapeutic Goods Administration
(Department of Health) has accepted transfer of your request to the
Department of Health on 26 May 2022 for access to documents under the
Freedom of Information Act 1982 (FOI Act) as follows:

              “Could you please provide me with the date and time that the
application ARTG ENTRY 333747 was first received In your office. No other
details of the application is required.”

Under section 15(5)(b) of the FOI Act, the agency has 30 calendar days
after the date your request was received in which to provide a decision in
response to your request for access. A decision is currently due on or
before 25 June 2022.

However, where there is requirement to undertake consultation with
affected third parties, this timeframe is extended by a further 30 days.
It may also be extended in certain circumstances, including with your
agreement or where the Department applies to the Office of the Australian
Information Commissioner for an extension.

Unless you advise otherwise, draft and duplicate documents and
Commonwealth employee names and contact details below Senior Executive
Service level and mobile telephone numbers of all staff will be excluded
from the scope of your request under section 22(1)(a)(ii) of the FOI Act.

Documents containing personal/third party information, (e.g. the names and
contact details of any individuals, or any information that could
reasonably identify an individual) may require the Department to consult
with the identified individuals or parties. As such, we would be grateful
if you could please advise if you are seeking access to this third party
information by Thursday 2 June 2022.

Additionally, the TGA would like to clarify whether you are seeking the
application form for ARTG entry 333747 with sensitive information (apart
from the date) redacted?

In addition, please note that if the decision maker decides that you are
liable to pay a charge in relation to your request then this timeframe is
extended pending payment of a deposit. You will be notified by the
Department if you are liable to pay a charge and/or if third party
consultation is required.

If you have any queries, please contact the FOI team on (02) 6289 4630, or
via email at [1][email address].

Kind regards

Dear Diane

 

Thank you for your emails to the Department of Health dated 4 June 2022
providing clarification about your request. We note from your responses
that you are not seeking a document, you are simply seeking the date and
time ARTG entry 333747 was received by the TGA. 

 

At the outset, we note that the objective of the FOI Act is to provide
access to documents, rather than merely information. The Act does not
provide a mechanism for releasing information that is not contained within
a document. The TGA has identified a document that would satisfy your
request.  

 

​Additionally, whilst we note that you are not seeking third party
information, under section 27(1)(4) of the FOI Act an agency must not give
access to a document containing business information unless the
organisation that information relates to is given reasonable opportunity
to make submissions in relation to the document. As the information you
have requested relates to the business or commercial affairs of a
business, the TGA is required to consult with any relevant third parties.

 

Please do not hesitate to contact the FOI team if you have any further
questions.

 

Kind regards
