Dear Elizabeth Davis Boyd

We refer to your correspondence below of 23 January 2023, to the former
Department of Agriculture, Water and the Environment. It appears your
email was intended for the Department of Climate Change, Energy, the
Environment and Water (the Department), which came into existence on 1
July 2022. Your email is seeking:

‘Can you please identify all members of the Wollumbin Consultative Group
who were responsible for extending the closure of Mt Warning after Covid.

I am the personal assistant of Ms Elizabeth Davis Boyd the Ngarkawal
women's senior custodian of that mountain and since one side of the
mountain is women's business and one side of the mountain is men's
business, I need to confirm which Aboriginal people where involved tin
that decision.

My appointment was only recently actioned and re-instating public access
to Mt Warning, repairing approx $1.5M worth of damage from closing and
neglecting the area, we would like to spiritually remediate the site so
that our people can come and connect to this very special mountain.’

Please be advised that we do not consider your email to be a valid request
under the Freedom of Information Act 1982 (Cth) (FOI Act).

This is due to the right of access under the FOI Act to documents, rather
than to information. In your request, you have not specified documents.

If you would like to submit a new FOI request, you may do so by email at
[1][email address] or by completing the online request form
