Annual Reports 1979/80 to 1999/00
Dear Australian Federal Police,
This request is an application for the purpose of the Freedom of Information Act 1982.
I would like copies of the organisation's annual reports from Annual Reports 1979/80 to 1999/00.
However, I understand that you may not be able to send all annual reports in one message, I will allow the documents to be sent gradually over a period of days or weeks.
Also, given that this request is made during the holiday period (Christmas/New year), I understand that this request may not be processed in a 30 day period, so I will also allow an extension to the response period from 30 days to 45 days.
Thank you for your time and consideration and all the best for the new year.
Yours faithfully,
Chris H

Dear Chris H
YOUR FREEDOM OF INFORMATION REQUEST
I refer to your application dated 24 December 2019, in which you seek
access to documents under the Freedom of Information Act 1982 (the Act) as
follows:
“Access to AFP 'annual reports 1999/00”
Timeframe
Your request was received by this agency on 24 December 2019, and the 30
day statutory period for processing your request commenced from that date.
We acknowledge you stating the processing period can be extended due to
the Christmas/New Year shutdown. The due date for your request is 8
February 2020.
Information considered 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:
- Names of AFP members, other than the Senior Executive.
- Direct telephone numbers, signatures and mobile telephone numbers
of AFP members.
- 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.
- 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.
If you object to the AFP excluding any of the above information, please
advise this office within seven days of receipt of this email.
Disclosure of your Identity
Should the AFP be required to consult with third parties in accordance
with the sections 26A, 27 and 27A of the Act, please advise us if you have
any objections to those parties knowing your identity for the purposes of
the consultation. If we do not receive your consent, we will not disclose
your identity to third parties.
Charges
You will be notified of any charges in accordance with the Freedom of
Information (Fees and Charges) Regulations, should they apply, in relation
to your request as soon as practicable.
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 this office in writing before 8
February 2020.
Yours sincerely
Bella AFP23358
