Subject: Internal review of Freedom of Information request - aggregate report of COVID-19 Co-morbidities
From: J M <xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx@xxxxxxxxxxx.xxx.xx>
To: FOI requests at Health <xxx@xxxxxx.xxx.xx>

Dear Department of Health,

Please pass this on to the person who conducts Freedom of Information reviews.

I am writing to request an internal review of Department of Health's handling of my FOI request 'aggregate report of COVID-19 Co-morbidities'.

My request has been avoided in its entirety, furthermore, an outcome to an unrelated FOIA request was coupled along with my request - in affect rendering my request unanswered and effectively was avoided.

I am unhappy with my response on the grounds that while looking through liasing material, its clear that not a single attempt had been made to fulfil my inquiry/gather the relevant documents and therefore believe the response given was unacceptable and the conduct of the officers pertinent to my request acted with utmost disregard to the intentions of FOIA responsibilities.

It is clear that my request was not fulfilled, nor was it in any way, shape or form investigated to the extent that the mission of the FOIA requires.

A full history of my FOI request and all correspondence is available on the Internet at this address: https://www.righttoknow.org.au/request/aggregate_report_of_covid_19_co

Yours faithfully,

J M
