I acknowledge receipt of your request under the FOI Act. CASA received
your request on 1 October 2024 and the 30-day statutory period for
processing your request commenced from the day after that date. You should
therefore expect a decision by COB Thursday, 31 October 2024. However, the
period of 30 days may be extended if CASA needs to consult third parties
or for other reasons. CASA will advise you if this happens. Should the
timeframe be extended, you will be notified by CASA with the new due date.

You will be notified of any charges in relation to your request as soon as

via email to your nominated email address. Please advise if you wish a
different communication method – additional charges may apply.

 

When CASA has made a decision about your FOI request, we will send you a
letter explaining our decision and your review and appeal rights.

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
