Dear Foible,

 

Acknowledgment of request for access under the Freedom of Information Act
1982 (Cth)

 

The Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC) acknowledges
receipt of your submission of 16 May 2023 requesting, under the Freedom of
Information Act 1982 (Cth), to:

Timeframe for processing your request

The ACCC has 30 days to process your request, beginning 16 May 2023. This
timeframe may be extended by the ACCC where consultation with third
parties is necessary.

 

Charges

If the ACCC decides that you should pay a charge to process your request,
we will notify you of the likely cost of processing your request and your
options if you disagree. The statutory timeframe is placed on hold from
when this is sent to you and resumes at a later time.

 

We will notify you of any charges in relation to your request as soon as
practicable.

 

Consultation with third parties

The ACCC may be required to consult with businesses or individuals (third
parties) where you have sought information about those third parties. The
Act grants an extra 30 days processing time for the ACCC to undertake this
consultation. You will be advised if we extend the timeframe to allow
third party consultation.

 

Decision

A decision maker will assess the documents (if any) to decide if we can
release them, or if they are exempt from release. We will send you the
decision and notify you of your review rights.

 

We will only release documents once any applicable processing charge is
paid.

 

If we cannot locate any documents that are covered by the scope of your
request, we will advise you of this and your review rights.
