Good afternoon,

 

I am contacting you with regard to your email correspondence of 7
September 2022, seeking to access government information held with NT
Health.

 

Your application has been submitted as a Freedom of Information
application pursuant to the provisions of the Information Act 2002 (the
Act). Section 18 of the Act sets out how an application must be made.
Section 18(2A) of the Act provides:

 

·         The application is to be accompanied by the application fee.

 

As your request relates to government information an application fee of
$30.00 is applicable. Payment of this fee can be made by cheque, payable
to the Receiver of Territory Monies (RTM) and sent to the Information and
Privacy Unit, Department of Health, PO Box 40596 Casuarina NT 0811.

 

Alternatively, you may contact RTM on 08 8999 1606 and make a direct
payment quoting cost code: 70100380 166311 and reference number
FOI2022/343.

 

Section 18(3) of the Act provides:

 

·         Before accepting an application, a public sector organisation
must satisfy itself as to the identity of the applicant.

 

Please provide this office with a copy of your identification document
(ID). (i.e. Drivers licence, Proof of age card or Medicare card). This can
be submitted via email to [1][email address] and does not
require certification.

 

In addition to the above, I advise that this unit has undertaken
preliminary enquiries for the purpose of  progressing your application.
While these search processes remain subject to a final determination,
feedback provided by the relevant program area indicates that information
meeting the terms of your request may not exist. I provide you with this
information as a courtesy only and note that further searches will be
undertaken only once the requirements set out by sections 18(2A) and 18(3)
of the Act are met.

 

As such, I advise that your application has not yet been accepted. NT
Health will hold this application as pending for 30 days from the date of
this email unless otherwise agreed, after which the request will be closed
and withdrawn. If for any reason you still require the records requested,
a new request for information will be required.

 

If you have any further queries please do not hesitate to contact the
Information and Privacy Unit.

 

Kind Regards
