Ben Fairless made this Freedom of Information request to Australian Grand Prix Corporation as part of a batch sent to 125 authorities
This request has been closed to new correspondence from the public body. Contact us if you think it ought be re-opened.
Dear Australian Grand Prix Corporation,
Can I please have a copy of the current FOI Delegations, and any related directions issued in respect of FOI.
I believe this information could be considered "operational information" so I therefore request release under the IPS, or under Administrative Access.
Yours faithfully,
Ben Fairless

Dear FOI,
I'm looking for any written authorisations that allow people other than the principal officer to perform functions under the FOI ACT.
I'm also looking for any guidance used internally around the processing of FOI requests.
Yours sincerely,
Ben Fairless
