Dear Mr Sweeney
I refer to your emails to the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC) dated 5 December 2018.
I acknowledge receipt of your request and advise that I am the relevant decision maker.

Dear Mr Sweeney
I refer to my email to you dated 5 December 2018 in response to your
request under the Freedom of Information Act 1982 (Cth) (‘the Act’) sent
by email on 26 November 2018.
The Australian Securities and Investments Commission (‘ASIC’) advises that
the Counsel briefing ASIC in relation to the NULIS proceedings in the
Federal Court are: Tim Faulkner SC and Joanne Shepard.
As ASIC has provided the names of Counsel to you in relation to these
proceedings, and ASIC did not receive a response from you by 12 December
2018 as stipulated in my email to you on 5 December 2018, ASIC considers
that your formal request under the Act has been withdrawn.
Kind regards,
