Dear Mr Singh
Thank you for your email received by the Attorney-General's Department
(the department) on 24 May 2023 in which you are seeking to know by which
authority agencies spell out names in capital letters.
Please note that the department does not have policy responsibility for
licencing, Medicare or the Australian Tax Office (ATO). Freedom of
Information contact details for Medicare and the ATO are:
* [1]https://www.ato.gov.au/forms/foi-request...
* [2]www.servicesaustralia.gov.au/foi
Can you please advise if you wish to proceed with making an FOI request to
the Attorney-General’s Department about this subject. If we do not hear
back from you by 9 June 2023 we will take this to mean you no longer wish
to make an FOI request to the department and no further action will be
taken.
Kind regards
Leonie
