Dear Dr Terhorst,

 

Thank you for your email of 16 May 2023 requesting access to documents
held by the Department of Infrastructure, Transport, Regional Development,
Communications and the Arts (the Department) under the Freedom of
Information Act 1982 (FOI Act).

 

You have requested access to:

 

Pursuant to my interest in the Hobart Airport Master Plan 2022 approved by
Minister King, I hereby formally request the disclosure of all relevant
public submissions related to this plan. Additionally, I am seeking access
to the detailed briefing notes presented to the Minister, with particular
attention to public grievances, notably those germane to the effects of
aircraft noise and environmental disturbances beyond the immediate
confines of the airport property.

 

Your request has been allocated the reference number FOI23-279. Could you
please ensure that you quote this reference number in all future
correspondence with the Department.

 

Timeframes

The statutory due date for you to receive a decision on your request is 15
June 2023. This date may be extended in certain circumstances, and in the
event that this occurs, the Department will notify you.  Where the due
date falls on a Saturday, Sunday or public holiday, the timeframe will
expire on the next working day.

 

Other information

Please note that the Department considers the following information
outside the scope of your request unless you specifically request it:

o personal information of third-party individuals; including public
servants below the SES level and all email addresses, signatures and
direct telephone numbers
o any duplicates and drafts of final versions of documents captured by
your request
o any correspondence sent directly to or from you.

 

The Department may impose a charge for the work involved in providing
access to the documents in accordance with the Freedom of Information
(Charges) Regulations. You will be notified separately if the Department
decides to impose a charge. There is no charge for documents that contain
your own personal information.

 

Where documents are released to you under the FOI Act in response to your
request, the Department must publish those documents on its FOI Disclosure
Log within 10 business days of their release to you, unless they contain
personal information or business affairs information that would be
unreasonable to publish. Further information regarding the Department’s
FOI Disclosure Log can be found [1]here.
