Dear Australian Crime Commission,

I am lodging a request for document pursuant to the Freedom of Information Act 1982.

Background

The document I seek is related to an occupational pension trust establish in 1913 that has been known by several names including the Elders IXL Superannuation Fund.

The "authorised purpose" of the trust is to provide "pensions and benefits" to certain male officers, their wives, widows and dependants.

A purported Deed of Variation that bears the signature of Ken Jarret who served a term of imprisonment for Dishonest Conduct after an investigation by the former National Crime Authority purports to replace the pension benefit with a token lump sum benefit.

The document I seek

The document I seek includes the following words

"Benefit Calculation Sheet – How the Australian Crime Commission can determine the typical loss incurred by victims of Australia’s Worst White-Collar Crime"

The search period is from 2 January 2015

Yours faithfully,

Phillip Sweeney

foi, Australian Crime Commission
