Dear FOI.LEGAL.TEAM,
I would like to contend that the charges should be reduced or not imposed.
The information contained in these complaints contains community opinion in relation to a controversial piece of legislation. Release of this information would help to better inform the community of a varied degree of opinions and arguments against the legislation. It would help to drive public policy debate in other areas and would allow for individuals who have made complaints to the Department to have their voices heard more widely.
I also note that this is a widely reported piece of legislation, and the response of the Department in administering these complaints would contribute to public policy discussions in relation to the piece of legislation.
Yours sincerely,
Ben Fairless
