Scott McCormick made this Freedom of Information request to Therapeutic Goods Administration

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

Therapeutic Goods Administration did not have the information requested.

Dear Therapeutic Goods Administration,

I request release of all correspondence from ADF, AMI and ADHREC (ADMEC) with regard to the ADF Mefloquine and doxycycline malaria prophylaxis trial in Australian soldiers in East Timor, April 2001–October 2001 and October 2001–May 2002.

https://www.mja.com.au/journal/2005/182/...

I also request any correspondence with regard to amendments in this particular trial protocol.

Given the increased Senate scrutiny of this trial I also request that costs of processing the above application be waived on public interest grounds.

Yours faithfully,
Scott McCormick
