Dear Mr Peos

Re - Freedom of Information Request: No. 2021/22-007

I refer to your request to the National Health and Medical Research
Council (NHMRC) under the Freedom of Information Act 1982 (the FOI Act):

·       Please refer to my request for any official documents presenting
the official information of the Sars 2/ Covid 19 virus. I specifically
request the documents relating to the isolation of the Covid 19 virus and
sub strains as presented to medical bodies for assessment in relation to
any supposed vaccine and their benefits and/or side effects.

·       I specifically wish to see the Department of Health's records or
any other Departments records of independent research into an isolated
form of Sars2 and/or Covid 19 and sub strains.

·       I specifically wish to see the Department of Healths or any other
Departments independent documentation relating to the isolation of the
Sars 2 / Covid 19 biological viral entity and the captured vision via
electron microscope and/or any other method of capturing vision of the

·       I specifically wish to see documentation related to the assessment
of the Covid 19 Viral biological entity in relation to the mandate of
Covid 19 vaccines as recommended to Business and/or advice given to
business seeking to mandate vaccines for workers.

Timeframe for receiving your decision

The statutory timeframe for processing a request is 30 days, starting from
the day after the day on which your application was received. Therefore,
the due date for a decision on your request 11 November 2021.

This timeframe may be extended where: 

·       charges are levied as prescribed by the Freedom of Information
(Charges) Regulations 2019 (FOI Regulations) (see charges below)

·       consultation with third parties is necessary (see consultation
with third parties below). 

Charges

Agencies may decide that an applicant is liable to pay a charge in respect
of a request for access to documents. These charges are set by the FOI
Regulations and are for search and retrieval of documents, decision making
and provision of access (for example, copying and postage). 

If NHMRC decides to charge you in respect of this FOI request, we will
send you a preliminary assessment of the charges as soon as possible
following retrieval of any documents that may be relevant to your
request.  

Consultation with third parties

NHMRC may be required under the FOI Act to consult other parties (third
parties) where information relating to third parties arises in documents
sought by your request. The FOI Act prescribes a further 30 days
processing time for NHMRC to undertake this consultation. You will be
advised as soon as possible of any requirement to consult with a third
party.

Disclosure log

Finally, please note that section 11C of the FOI Act requires agencies to
disclose documents released under the FOI Act in a disclosure log, which
is made publicly available. There are exceptions to this requirement, such
as where release of the documents or parts of them would involve the
unreasonable disclosure of your or another person’s personal or business
information. You may choose to express a view on this issue and to
identify personal or business information that in your view would be
unreasonable to publish. However, you should be aware that section 11C of
the FOI Act embodies a pro-disclosure policy which agencies are required
to follow, subject to any exceptions provided for under the FOI Act.

If you have any queries throughout the process, please contact the FOI
office at: [1][NHMRC request email]

Kind regards
