Services Australia AAT non-disclosure applications
Lei Ying made this Freedom of Information request to Services Australia
Dear Services Australia FOI team
This is a request for access to documents under the Freedom of Information Act 1982.
I request the release of operational blueprint documents:
109-03030000 - Administrative Appeals Tribunal (AAT)
109-21032647 - Requesting non-disclosure of information during an Administrative Appeals Tribunal (AAT) first review
Warm regards,
Lei Ying
Thank you for contacting the Freedom of Information (FOI) team in Services
Australia (the Agency).
This email acknowledges your correspondence and provides some general
information in relation to FOI.
Charges
The Agency will advise you if a charge is payable to process your request
and the amount of any such charge as soon as practicable. No charge is
payable for providing a person with their own personal information.
Your address
The FOI Act requires you to provide us with an address which we can send
notices to. We will send correspondence and notices to your email address.
Please advise us as soon as possible if you wish correspondence to be sent
to another address or if your email address changes.
Administrative release of documents
The Agency has administrative access arrangements in place for the release
of certain documents without the need for a formal FOI request. These
arrangements do not extend to information or material of third parties.
Exclusion of staff details
The Agency is working towards ensuring all staff have a choice about
whether they provide their full name, personal logon identifiers and
direct contact details in response to FOI requests. Where such details are
included in documents they will be redacted. If you request staff details
as part of your FOI application, this may add to processing time and
applicable charges as it will be necessary to consider whether these
details are exempt under the FOI Act.
Good afternoon,
Please find attached correspondence relating to your FOI request.
Kind regards
