police media releases between 2010 And 2016

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Dear NSW Police Force,

I would like a copy of all police media releases between 2010 and 2016. If
this is not possible can I get a copy of all archived police media
releases for 2015 and 2016?

These are not made available on your website for more than a few months,
why is that?

Yours faithfully,

Nigel Gladstone

Dear NSW Police Force,

I am wondering why I have to pay $30 to get information that is on the
public record, your agency has in some form or other and should be
archived or saved somewhere.

Can you please explain why your first response is to ask for money and if
you do in fact have the information I am requesting?

Also what form will the response come in?

Please do not send PDFs.
I am hoping for a user-friendly format like CSV, Excel or even word
documents.

Yours faithfully,

Nigel Gladstone

Hi Nigel,

In order for you to receive the $15 discount, you  need to supply proof of
financial hardship - as stated on the application form.  If this is not
provided, then the fee is $30.  Please copy and email a copy of the
relevant card that entitles you to the discount.

thank you,
Monika

Hi Nigel,

Under the GIPA Act, the fee is $30.  Currently NSW Police allow a discount
of $15 for people who have financial hardship and this must be proven - as
stated on the application form.  Journalism and the information you
require does not meet the criteria.

We are unable to process your application unless a $30 fee is supplied.
 Your application will be made invalid unless the $30 is supplied.

thank you,
Monika
