Good afternoon Mr Gothe-Snape

 

I refer to your freedom of information request, which was received by the
ACT Emergency Services Agency on 29 April 2015 seeking information in
relation to ‘000 emergency calls’. We are currently processing your
request, however I note that the ACT Emergency Services Agency
communication centre receives calls for assistance on behalf of the ACT
Ambulance Service, ACT Fire and Rescue, ACT Rural Fire Service and the ACT
State Emergency Service. Calls for police assistance are directed to the
Australian Federal Police (AFP). As a Commonwealth agency, the AFP are not
covered by the ACT Freedom of Information Act 1989 and we are unable  to
transfer your request to them. If you wish to apply to the AFP to receive
this information, the relevant access provisions can be found at the link
provided below:

If you have any questions regarding this matter, please feel free to
contact me on (02) 6207 2167.

 

 

Kind regards
