Good afternoon

 

We write to you on behalf of the Minister for Defence Industry in relation
to your request under the Freedom of Information Act 1982 (FOI Act),
seeking access to:

 

“… the Minister’s diary covering all days in September in ‘weekly agenda’
format.”

 

Please be advised that this request has attracted a refusal under section
24AA of the FOI Act due to the number of individual, business and foreign
government consultations required to be undertaken. It is considered that
the workload and time involved in undertaking consultation with the large
number of third parties identified within the documents in scope of this
request would involve a substantial and unreasonable diversion of
resources.

 

In accordance with section 24AB of the FOI Act, we are required to consult
with you, advising of the intention to refuse access to your request in
its current form. This is the nominated email that you should contact with
a view to agreeing to one of the following options:

 

    a.    withdraw your request

    b.    revise your request; or

    c.    indicate that you do not wish to revise your request.

 

In accordance with section 24AB(9) of the FOI Act, we are only required to
undertake this consultation process once, and you must contact me within
14 days to discuss.

 

Kind regards
