John Smith made this Freedom of Information request to Department of the Prime Minister and Cabinet

This request has been closed to new correspondence from the public body. Contact us if you think it ought be re-opened.

The request was refused by Department of the Prime Minister and Cabinet.

Dear Department of the Prime Minister and Cabinet,

It is known that Queen Elizabeth II died at around 16:30 British summer time on 8 September. Which was already 9 September in Canberra. Did that mean Charles III became the King of Australia on 9 September?

Yours faithfully,

John Smith
