I refer to your request for access to documents relating to correspondence
between ASADA and the AFL under the Freedom of Information Act 1982. I

players (excluding the Essendon Football Club) between 1 February 2012 and

We received your request on Thursday 25 February 2016 and the 30 day

this happens.

 

You will be notified of any charges in relation to your request as soon as
possible, before we process any requested documents or impose a final
charge.

 

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(For example, personal information will not be published where this would
