Freedom of Information Request
I refer to your request dated 19 February 2024, which was received by WorkSafe
Victoria (WorkSafe) on 19 February 2024.
Section 17(2A) of the Freedom of Information Act 1982 (Vic) (FOI Act) requires
an application fee to accompany a request for access to documents.
I note that you have not provided the required application fee. This is required
in order to process your application. Accordingly, at present your request is
not valid.
If you consider payment would cause you hardship you may apply for a waiver or
reduction of application fee. Please provide evidence in support of such
application. Supporting evidence may include a copy of a current concession or
health care card, a bank statement, or a statutory declaration outlining why
paying the application fee would cause you hardship. If you are not sure what
information to provide, please contact us to discuss. We will assess your fee
waiver request and let you know the outcome.
Otherwise, please pay $31.80 by 29 March 2024. Payment can be made by bank
cheque, money order, bank transfer or credit card. Please find the attached FOI
Payment Options for more details.
Please note if payment (or proof of financial hardship) is not received by 29
March 2024, WorkSafe will consider this matter closed. If you wish to obtain the
requested documentation in the future, you will be required to submit a new FOI
request accompanied by the statutory application fee.
Upon receipt of the application fee (or proof of hardship), WorkSafe has 30 days
in which to notify you of its decision in response to your request.
If you have any queries, please contact me at the email address below.
Yours sincerely,
Kind regards,
WorkSafe Victoria

Dear Worksafe FOI,
I did not receive an email notification asking for payment so did not see the request. The fee has now been paid (direct deposit).
Please proceed with this FOI.
Yours sincerely,
Dale Webster
