Dear Applicant,
YOUR FREEDOM OF INFORMATION REQUEST – CRM 2021/697
I refer to your request dated 1 June 2021, seeking access to documents
under the Freedom of Information Act 1982 (the Act) as follows:
- The current version of any MoU between AFP (ACT Policing) and Housing
ACT
- If there is not a current version, the most recent version;
- Any other document purporting to authorise the exchange of information
between AFP (ACT Policing) and Housing ACT (and/or the ACT Community
Services Directorate).
-- This includes information exchange AFP - Housing ACT and Housing ACT -
AFP
Timeframe
Your request was received by the AFP on 1 June 2021, and the 30 day
statutory period for processing your request commenced from that date. The
due date for your request is 01 July 2021.
As the AFP focuses its efforts on managing the impact of COVID-19 on its
critical operations, our ability to process requests for information under
the Act may be affected or not delivered within expected timeframes. We
apologise for the inconvenience and appreciate your patience during this
period. Should this occur we will contact you as soon as practicable, and
seek to extend processing timeframes in accordance with the Act.
Information irrelevant to the scope of your request
The AFP, in its management of FOI requests, excludes the following
information on the basis that is irrelevant to the scope of a request:
- duplicate documents, including duplicate emails (the AFP will only
provide emails where they form a final email chain and the
authors/recipients are contained within the final email); and
- information that is publicly available, for example, newspaper
articles, online publications including information available on the AFP
Information Publication Scheme and the AFP disclosure log.
Please advise this office that you also consent to exclude the following
information:
- Names of AFP members, other than the Senior Executive; and
- Direct telephone numbers, middle names of AFP members, signatures
and mobile telephone numbers of AFP members.
Disclosure of your identity
The AFP may be required to consult with third parties in accordance with
sections 26A, 27 and 27A of the Act. Please advise us if you consent to
the AFP identifying you as the FOI applicant for the purposes of the
consultation. If we do not receive your consent, we will not disclose
your identity to third parties.
Information Publication Scheme
Please be advised that effective 1 May 2011 and in accordance with section
8(2) of the Act, an agency is required to publish information on the AFP
website following the notification of a decision in respect of a freedom
of information request. Details of the decision will be published in a
Disclosure Log which can be found at
[1]https://www.afp.gov.au/about-us/informat....
The requirement to publish information released under FOI reinforces the
objectives of the FOI Act to promote a pro-disclosure culture across
government, and to increase recognition that information held by
government is a national resource. Exceptions to the requirement to
publish information would apply to personal information and information
concerning the business affairs of a person if it was considered
‘unreasonable’ to do so.
If however, after noting the above, you wish to raise any concerns about
the publication of information concerning your request prior to the
notification of a decision, please advise the AFP in writing before 01
July 2021.
Yours sincerely
ISABEL (AFP24268)

Dear Applicant
I refer to your below your 1 June 2021 FOI request.
As your request covers documents which concern Commonwealth relations with
a State/Territory Government the Australian Federal Police is required to
consult with that State/Territory Government before making a decision on
the release of documents captured by your request.
Sub-section 15(6) of the Act provides for an extension of 30 days to the
statutory 30 day time limit for processing requests. The statutory
timeframe for your application commenced on 1 June 2021, therefore, the
time limit for processing your request and notification of a decision will
now expire on 2 August 2021 (noting 31 July 2021 is a Saturday).
