Good afternoon,

Thank you for your email of 16 January 2026 via Right to Know.

To progress your request, we need a little more detail so we can identify the specific documents you are seeking, as required by section 15(2)(b) of the Freedom of Information Act 1982 (FOI Act).

I+IBk-d like to assist you to refine the scope. Could you please clarify the following:

1) Which +IBw-Strategic Partnership+IB0-
+ICI- Please specify the supplier/consortium name(s) and any contract title/number.
+ICI- If you are referring to a particular project or stream, please name it.

2) Date range
+ICI- The period the documents relate to (e.g., +IBw-1 July 2024 to 30 June 2025+IB0-). Shorter ranges help us locate material more efficiently.

3) Document types (to help target searches)
+ICI- For +IBw-documented outputs+IB0-: do you mean deliverables under the contract (e.g., statements of work, milestone reports), or something else?
+ICI- For +IBw-lists of potential suppliers approached+IB0-: are you seeking a list of invitees for a limited/closed approach, the responses received (supplier names only), or both?

If you can provide the clarifications above by 21 January 2026, we will proceed on that basis.

If we are still unable to identify the documents sought from the information available, we may commence a formal request+IBE-consultation process under section 24AB of the FOI Act.

That process is designed to help further refine the scope where a practical refusal reason may exist.

As this request was lodged via Right to Know, correspondence is generally published on that site.

If you prefer, you can confirm an alternative email address for FOI notices and correspondence.

I+IBk-m happy to arrange a short call to workshop a scope that best meets your needs.

Kind regards,
Chris
