Dear AGD FOI Requests,

Yes I concede this was an error on my part. I was meaning to refer to the Attorney-General's Department.

~~I've been working on comparing graphics from different departments and had copied the text of another request, but must have not checked my request to make sure it was correct. Guess I should have gone to Specsavers.~~

Yours sincerely,

Glenn Hamiltonshire
