Good afternoon,
Freedom of Information Request No. FOI 2122-027
I refer to your request for access to documents under the Freedom of
Information Act 1982 (FOI Act) for the following:
“An evaluation of the TTL projects was conducted by UQ and delivered to
the department in mid 2021.”
If you disagree with this interpretation of your request, please let us
know in writing as soon as possible.
We received your access request on 22 September 2021. Your request became
a FOI access request on 23 September 2021, when you indicated in an email
that your request is made pursuant to the FOI Act. Therefore, the 30-day
statutory period for processing your request commenced from the day after
23 September 2021. You should expect a decision from us by 24 October
2021. The period of 30 days may be extended if we need to consult third
parties, impose a charge or for other reasons. We will advise you if this
happens.
You will be notified of any charges in relation to your request as soon as
possible, before we process any requested documents or impose a final
charge.
Where the documents within the scope of an FOI request include the
personal information of junior officers of the department or other
government agencies, the department’s practice is to not disclose that
information (eg, names, contact details). The names and contact details
of senior officers will generally be disclosed.
Please note that information released under the FOI Act may later be
published online on our disclosure log
([1]https://www.dss.gov.au/about-the-departm...),
subject to certain exceptions. (For example, personal information will not
be published where this would be unreasonable.)
We will contact you using the email address you have provided. Please
advise if you would prefer us to use an alternative means of contact. If
you have any questions, please feel free to contact us at the email
address provided below.
Yours sincerely
