Dear Justin Timberlake

If you are seeking documents in Australia, on children in Australia in education, the Department of Education may be the suitable department to direct your FOI request. DFAT is not the lead agency on education matters, providing any further information can assist with the department's searches. More information about the work of the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade can be accessed on its website at http://www.dfat.gov.au/.

In the consultation notice s 24AB letter sent to you by the department on 30 September 2024, you are given 14 days to revise the scope of your request that would enable the department to process your FOI. We advise you to consider a few of our suggestions in revising the scope of your request or provide us with more information that would enable us to identify the documents you seek.

In our attempt to understand the scope of your request, we have captured that you are seeking:
All documents between 1 September 2025 to 24 September 2025 about racism and racial discrimination suffered by children in Australia in education.

If this is the scope of your request, please consider reviewing the department's organisation chart to help us identify the line area or the specific education program.

Consultation to revise the scope of the request
Pursuant to section 24AB(2)(e) of the FOI Act, you have 14 days from the day you are given this notice to:
a. withdraw your request,
b. revise the scope of your request in such a way that enables officers of the department to identify areas of the department that can be tasked to undertake search for relevant documents, or
c. inform the department that you do not wish to revise your request.

We look forward to your response.

Should you have any queries regarding this decision please contact the Freedom of Information Section by email: [DFAT request email].

Kind regards
