Dear Superannuation Complaints Tribunal,

The document I seek is a copy of the Referral under Section 64 notice dated on or around 20 September 2010 to ASIC and/or APRA in relation to a letter dated 20 September 2010 signed by Fiona Power - Director of the Tribunal.

This letter confirms that Ms Power had 'become aware' that the contravention of 'any law' may have occurred and that ASIC and or APRA should be provided with the particulars of the suspected contravention.

Becoming aware that a contravention of 'any law' may have occurred enlivens the Tribunal Chairperson's statutory duty pursuant to Section 64 of the SRC Act

Yours faithfully,

Phillip Sweeney
