Emails by [Name Removed at the request of the Department]

Alby P. made this Freedom of Information request to Department of Industry, Science, Energy & Resources

This request has been closed to new correspondence from the public body. Contact us if you think it ought be re-opened.

To whom it may concern,

Can the department release emails written by staff members of '[Name Removed at the request of the Department]' during delivery of incubator support programs?

I am interested in emails written between two meetings found here (https://righttoknow.org.au/request/isa_e...). First meeting is on 31/10/19 and second meeting is on 11/12/19.

This document (https://righttoknow.org.au/request/quest...) posted earlier by Mr Jakota on the Right To Know Website is apparently published somewhere by a department agency. The document says that it is OK for 'incubators' to hire staff to deliver grants for other 'incubators'? Excuse me for saying but this is bizarre.

Is [Name Removed at the request of the Department] an actual accelerator and do accelerators apply for the incubator grants?

Thanks,
Alby P.

Right to Know has been contacted by the Department of Industry, Science, Energy and Resources in relation to this request.

We have hidden the names of a company at the request of the Department after assessing the public interest in the name of the company remaining visible.

We feel that it's appropriate for the contents of the request to remain, however have agreed with the Department to hide the names in question.

Any questions in relation to this should be directed to contact@righttoknow.org.au.
