Complaints - New Vaccination Policy

Ben Fairless made this Freedom of Information request to Department of Health

This request has been closed to new correspondence from the public body. Contact us if you think it ought be re-opened.

The request was refused by Department of Health.

Dear Department of Health,

Can I please have a copy of:
- all complaints/feedback/correspondence in relation to the decision to deny "conscientious objectors" of Vaccination access to Government money
- Any response provided by the department in relation to those complaints/feedback/correspondence
- Any internal discussion in relation to the complaints/feedback/correspondence

To assist the Department, I specifically exclude:
- Duplicates of documents (I only require 1 copy of each document)
- The personal information of individual members of the public (this does not extend to individuals who are representing a specific organisation)

Where possible, I would prefer that this information is provided in it's original format - that is to say, either in Microsoft Word or HTML (where received online or via email). I ask that you not use PDFs wherever possible as it makes it difficult to read the information.

Please deal with this request informally or in accordance with your Administrative Access scheme if practicable. If this isn't practical, please consider it a formal application under the Freedom of Information Act.

Yours faithfully,

Ben Fairless
