Dear Jane,
Llanberis Energy rejects your proposal to treat this and another request as one. We believe that each request should stand on its own merits. The requests are for different documents from different persons within your Department. We intentionally lodged separate FOI requests and expect that they are treated separately. This request for the NOPTA Assessment Report stands on its own.
Yours sincerely,
CJ Carty
Managing Director
Llanberis Energy Pty Ltd
Thank you for your email. I am on leave from 8 - 12 July 2013. If you
have any queries/urgent questions, please contact Robert Maclean at
[email address].
Dear Young, Jane,
Thank you very much for providing the requested FOI documents.
Yours sincerely,
CJ Carty

This seems to be a good result for the applicant. For Right to Know it cannot be a best result.
The applicant has received the documents. But where are they? Did the department send them to an address for Llanberis Energy Pty Ltd? Or was there another talk between the applicant and the department. So, Right to Know has no record of the decision. Also, the public cannot see the documents.
