Good afternoon, Fraser Tweedale

Freedom of Information Request +IBM- DTA reference FOI012/2025

I acknowledge receipt of your request dated 4 November 2025 in which you requested under the Freedom of Information Act 1982 (the FOI Act) access to:
SCOPE
(1). Documents mentioning or discussing, with respect to the changes between the Digital Service Standard v1.0 and the Digital Service Standard Version 2.0:

(a) The removal of the v1.0 +ACI-Make source code open+ACI- criterion

(b) Whether or how the v1.0 +ACI-Make source code open+ACI- criterion, or the intent of that criterion, is incorporated in or encapsulated by the Version 2.0 standard.

We wish to advice that DTA has commenced a search for your requested documents.

Publication
As required by the FOI Act, information released under the FOI Act may later be published online unless an exemption applies. For example, personal information will not be published where this would be unreasonable. Any documents provided to you under the FOI Act will be published on our disclosure log (www.dta.gov.au) as soon as practicable after they are released to you.

Seeking your consent to exclude junior departmental officer contact details
The DTA will include the names of SES officers in any document released under FOI. However, the DTA would like to seek your consent to exclude the names and contact details of junior staff (non-SES officers) from any FOI documents. As well as personal contact detail for SES officers that are not in the public domain. Where consent is received, the names and contact details of junior officers and personal contact detail for SES officers are redacted under section 22 of the FOI Act, on the basis that these details are irrelevant to the request.

Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions

Regards,
