Dear CR
I acknowledge receipt of your below request dated 1 October 2024 which was communicated by email to the Federal Court of Australia (the Court), and modified in your email dated 8 October 2024 (copy attached), for access to documents under the Freedom of Information Act 1982 (Cth) (FOI Act).
Based on the Court's preliminary assessment of your FOI request, it has been determined that, at this stage, you are not liable to pay a charge. If that changes, the Court will inform you and will issue you with a notice of charge as required by the FOI Act.
Kind regards
FOI Officer
Federal Court of Australia

Dear FOI Team,
I wish to provide clarification as to the scope of my request.
If a preliminary charge notice or decision of a charge is sent via the body of an email (as opposed to an email attachment) I wish to access a copy of that email, as well as the applicant's contention reasons.
Yours sincerely,
CR
