Dear Mr Thompson,
Our reference ASADA FOI 19-14.
We refer to your recent request for access to documents under the Freedom
of Information Act 1982 (FOI Act), received by ASADA on 5 May 2019.
We understand your request to be for:
· All briefing documents prepared for Senate Estimates hearings
held in 2019 to date
If you believe that the scope of your request has not been interpreted
correctly, please advise ASADA as soon as possible on the contact details
listed at the conclusion of this email.
Your request was received on Sunday 5 May 2019, and the 30 day statutory
period for processing your request commences from the day after that date,
you should therefore expect a decision from ASADA by Tuesday 4 June 2019.
The period of 30 days may be extended if we need to consult third parties,
or for other reasons. We will advise you if this happens.
Please note that information released under the FOI Act may later be
published online on our disclosure log subject to certain exceptions (for
example personal information will not be published where this would be
unreasonable).
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact ASADA at
[email address].
Kind regards,
ASADA FOI

Dear Mr Thompson,
Our reference ASADA FOI 19-14
We refer to your request for access to documents under the Freedom of
Information Act 1982 (FOI Act), received by ASADA on 5 May 2019, for the
following:
· All briefing documents prepared for Senate Estimates hearings
held in 2019 to date
Consultation on documents concerning business, commercial and financial
affairs
We have identified some documents which contain information concerning the
business, commercial or financial affairs of an organisation, or a
person's business or professional affairs. Where that person or
organisation might reasonably object to the release of that information
ASADA is required to consult with the person or organisation concerned
(under section 27 of the Freedom of Information Act 1982 (FOI Act)) before
making a decision on the release of those documents.
The consultation mechanism under section 27 applies when we believe the
person or organisation concerned may wish to contend that the requested
documents are exempt because their release would disclose trade secrets or
commercially valuable information or may adversely affect their business
or financial affairs. We will take into account any comments we receive
from the person or organisation but the final decision about whether to
grant you access to the documents you requested rests with ASADA. For
this reason the period for processing your request has been extended by 30
days in order to allow our agency time to consult with that person or
organisation (as outlined at section 15(6) of the FOI Act). The processing
period for your request will now end on Friday 5 July 2019.
Should you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.
Kind regards

We note that the due date for this request is Friday 5 July 2019.
We are currently in the process of finalising our response with a view to
providing you with a decision within the statutory timeframe. However, due
to the recent unexpected absence of the FOI Officer responsible for this
matter, and competing priorities, we are seeking your agreement under
section 15AA of the FOI Act to extend the timeframe for the processing of
your request by seven (7) days, to Friday 12 July 2019.
Of course, if resources allow, we will endeavour to provide you with a
decision before this date.
We would be grateful if you could confirm whether you agree to our
request.
We look forward to hearing from you.
