Dear Department of Health,

If possible, please treat this as an informal or administrative request. Otherwise, please treat this as a formal request for documents under the Freedom of Information Act.

I am seeking copies of documents which include the statistics used to produce this video animation posted by the Prime Minister:

https://twitter.com/scottmorrisonmp/stat...

Specifically, the document(s) should include the number and percentage of first and second doses in each age group and by sex.

If possible, I request the data to be provided in its original, machine-readable format (for example, a spreadsheet).

Yours faithfully,
Ken

Department of Health

I am writing to notify you that the Department of Health (department) received your request on 16 August 2021 for access to documents under the Freedom of Information Act 1982 (Cth) (FOI Act) being:

The department may impose a charge for the work involved in providing access to the documents. If this request attracts a charge you will be notified in writing.

Unless you advise otherwise, draft and duplicate documents, along with Commonwealth employee names and contact details below Senior Executive Service level and mobile telephone numbers of all staff will be excluded from the scope of your request under s22(1)(a)(ii) of the FOI Act.

Request for extension of time

As a result of the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, the department is dealing with a very high volume of FOI requests. To ensure the department can process your request in accordance with the requirements of the FOI Act, including locating and providing access to all relevant documents, the department would be grateful if you would agree to an extension of 30 calendar days for processing your request. If you agree, the department will endeavour to provide a decision to you by 15 October 2021.
