Dear FOI People,

We write to acknowledge receipt of your request t the Treasurer, under the
Freedom of Information Act 1982 (FOI Act), seeking the following
documents:

All public speeches made by the Treasurer that contain a condemnation
about the killing of children in the occupied Palestinian Territories,
specifically in East Jerusalem, the West Bank and the Gaza Strip since the
7th October 2023. I require all draft and final versions of these
speeches.

The Treasury provides secretariat services to its portfolio ministers in
FOI matters. The Treasury received your request on 5 June 2024. The FOI
Act provides that we have 14 days to acknowledge, and 30 days to process,
the request. This period may be extended if we need to consult third
parties or for other reasons. We will advise you if this happens.

We will advise you if a charge is payable to process your request and the
amount of any such charge as soon as possible.

We make the following assumptions that affect the scope of the request.
These are set out below.

It is our usual practice:

•            not to disclose the personal information of government
employees or the personal contact details of senior government employees
(including those of the Treasury). The names of senior officers will
generally be released.

•            not to release duplicates of any document captured within the
scope of the request.

•            only the final version of a document will be considered
within scope.

Please inform us if you do not agree to the request being processed on the
above assumptions. If we do not hear from you, your request will be
processed on the basis that these documents are outside the scope of your
request.

We will contact you using the email address you provided. Please advise if
you would prefer us to use an alternative means of contact.

If you have any questions in relation to your application, please contact
the FOI Team on 02 6263 2800.
