Dear Mr Sanders,

I refer to your request for internal review (under the Freedom of
Information Act 1982) of Anthony Dickman's decision in relation to your
recent request seeking 'copies of any documents showing the existence of
meetings, emails or telephone calls between the Governor of the RBA, Glenn
Stevens, and Terry McRann (sic) between 1 January and 3 March 2015'.

I was appointed by the Governor to undertake the review.

Accordingly, I have examined the actions of the Bank's FOI section and
decision maker and also conducted my own enquiries in relation to whether
any documents relevant to your request exist.  I have made a fresh
decision (as required by the Act).

My decision is that there are no documents in existence relevant to your
request.

If you remain dissatisfied, you have further rights to review of my
decision, as detailed here
