Your address

The FOI Act requires that you provide us with an address which we can send

and correspondence to this address.

Please advise us as soon as possible if you wish correspondence to be sent

Please note that information released under FOI Act may be published in a

requires this publication, however it is subject to certain exceptions,
including where publication of personal, business, professional or
commercial information would be unreasonable.

Exclusion of junior department employee details

The department is working towards ensuring that all employees have a
choice about whether they provide their full name and direct contact
details in response to public enquiries. Where such details are included
in the scope of a request, this may add to processing time and applicable
charges as it may be necessary to consider whether the details are exempt
under the FOI Act. On this basis, unless you tell us otherwise, we will
assume that these details are out of scope of your request and they will
be redacted under section 22 of the FOI Act.

Further assistance

If you have any questions please email [2][AWE request email].
