2016/17 Additional Estimates Topics
Dear Department of the Prime Minister and Cabinet,
If possible, please treat this as an administrative or informal request.
Otherwise, please consider this a request under the FOI Act.
Can you please provide the topics list for briefs created in preparation for hearings of Senate 2016-17 Additional Estimates.
I ask that all fees in relation to this request be waived because the release of the documents is in the public interest. The documents help identify the most important policy areas within the department's responsibilities.
Yours faithfully,
Jackson Gothe-Snape

Dear Mr Gothe-Snape
I refer to your email below in which you made a request to the Department of the Prime Minister and Cabinet (the Department) under the Freedom of Information Act 1982 (the FOI Act). The department has agreed to respond to you outside of the FOI ACT and to treat this under ‘administrative arrangements’.
As the department does not produce a topics list for senate estimates, no searches were required to be undertaken as no relevant documents exist or are in the possession of the Department, therefore there are no documents relevant to the scope of this request.
We trust this information is of assistance.
Yours sincerely
FOI Adviser
