FOI Request: FA 24/01/00826
File Number: FA24/01/00826
Dear Witoon
I refer to your email dated 17 January 2024, in which you requested access
to documents held by the Department of Home Affairs (the Department) under
the Freedom of Information Act 1982 (the FOI Act).
You have requested access to the following:
I would like to request an up-to-date list all the business sponsors
especially animal care & services and pet grooming businesses.
Intention to refuse request
I am writing to advise you that I intend to refuse your request on the
basis that a practical refusal reason exists. However, before I make a
final decision to do this, you have an opportunity to revise your request
to remove the practical refusal reason. This is called a ‘request
consultation process’. You have 14 days to respond to this notice in one
of the ways set out below.
Power to refuse request
Section 24 of the FOI Act provides that if the Department is satisfied
that a practical refusal reason exists in relation to a request, the
Department must undertake a consultation process with you, and if, after
that consultation process, the Department remains satisfied that the
practical refusal reason still exists, the Department may refuse to give
you access to the documents subject to the request.
Practical refusal
A practical refusal reason exists under section 24AA of the FOI Act if
either (or both) of the following applies:
(1)(a)(i) the work involved in the processing of the request would
substantially and unreasonably divert the resources of the Department from
its other operations
(1)(b) the request does not satisfy the requirement in section
15(2)(b) of the FOI Act, which requires you to provide such information
concerning the document you are seeking access to, to enable the
Department to be able to identify it.
I consider that the request does not satisfy the requirements of section
15(2)(b) of the FOI Act, and accordingly that practical refusal reasons
exist under section 24AA(1)(b) of the FOI Act.
Reasons for practical refusal
The Department has considered the scope of this request and its capacity
to conduct searches of relevance based on the current scope. The Freedom
of Information Act 1982 provides a right to obtain access to “a document
of an agency”. It is my preliminary view that your request, in its current
form, does not satisfy the requirement in section 15(2)(b) of the FOI Act
and is therefore not valid.
FOI and the relevant business area require your assistance to narrow down
the scope of your request due to its broad nature and the amount of
Departmental resources involved in processing this request.
In consideration of the above, I am satisfied that the Department is
currently unable to identify documents of relevance based on the
information provided in scope. I consider that this would result in the
decision maker being unable to certify that all relevant documents have
been provided and considered in the assessment of this request and that a
practical refusal reason exists in relation to this request.
As such, I am satisfied that your request is not valid and a practical
refusal reason exists in this request.
Request Consultation Process
To enable the Department to consider your request for access under the FOI
Act, the Department will require sufficient information concerning the
specific existing documents you are seeking access to, so as to enable the
Department to identify those documents.
To assist with processing your request, please confirm the visa class or
subclass of the business sponsors you require. For example, subclass 457.
You now have an opportunity to revise your request to enable it to
proceed.
Your request is currently not a valid request for the purposes of section
15(2)(b) of the FOI Act. As part of this practical refusal consultation,
you have 14 days to do one of the following:
· withdraw your request;
· make a revised request;
· indicate that you do not wish to revise your request.
If you do not do one of the three things listed above during the
consultation period (14 days) or you do not consult the contact person
listed below during this period, the Department will take no further
action with your request.
Kind regards
Jade

Dear Witoon,
Freedom of Information Request
I refer to your email dated 17 January 2024 in which you requested access

Information Act 1982 (the FOI Act).
You specifically requested access to:
I would like to request an up-to-date list all the business sponsors
especially animal care & services and pet grooming businesses.
On 18 January 2024, Department notified you of its intention to refuse
your request due to the fact that the request does not satisfy the
requirement in section 15(2)(b) of the FOI Act, which requires you to
provide such information concerning the document you are seeking access
to, to enable the Department to be able to identify it.
In particular, Department notified you that, within 14 days of receipt of
that letter, you must advise Department that:
· you wish to make a revised request; or
· indicate that you do not wish to revise your request; or
· withdraw your request.
The 14 day period has now expired. As such, in accordance with section

to contact an FOI officer at [Department of Home Affairs request email].
