Dear April,

Thank you. Are you able to indicate, as far as practicable, the period for which the deferment will operate? The provision of the documents is listed as 'unanswered' and 'overdue' on the Senate website. It is not clear whether the documents have been provided to the Senate or when it is anticipated the documents will, if ever, be tabled.

Yours sincerely,

Archibald Andrews

Dear Mr Andrews,
 
I am writing in response to your email of 29 January 2025.
 
I have reached out  to the Tribunal’s Governance section for an update.
They have advised that the documents have not yet been tabled to
Parliament and they are expecting that this will happen in the coming
weeks.
 
I will provide further updates as they become available.
 
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate reaching out to
[1][ART request email].
 
Kind regards,

 

April W
