Dear Workplace Gender Equality Agency,
Please pass this on to the person who conducts Freedom of Information reviews.
I am writing to request an internal review of Workplace Gender Equality Agency's handling of my FOI request 'Decision to grant the AFL employer of choice status'.
I understand the confidentiality provisions between the applicant and the agency when submitting an EOCGE application and will not be asking for a review on the decision not to release any documents submitting by the AFL as part of their application.
I am however requesting a review on the decision not to release any internal correspondence or deliberations within the WGEA in assessing and deciding on the application of the AFL. I believe that internal correspondence and agency decision making is separate to the application from the AFL and does not come until the confidentiality provided by the application process.
A full history of my FOI request and all correspondence is available on the Internet at this address: https://www.righttoknow.org.au/request/d...
Yours faithfully,
Michael
