Dear Mr Harvey

 

I am writing in regards to your FOI request seeking:

Management, Detention and Settlement Portal. I also request any documents
attached to the detailed report.”

 

This email is to advise you of my decision that you are liable to pay a
charge in respect of the processing of your FOI request in accordance with
s 29 of the FOI Act.  

 

Please see the attached letter for further information.

Include your FA Reference number and advise whether you wish to pay the
deposit or the full amount.

 

The deposit or full payment can be paid by cheque, money order, credit
card or Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT).

 

Cheques and money orders should be made payable to "Collector of Public

Please advise FOI when you have made the payment made by direct credit so
that we can contact the Finance area and they can issue a receipt. You
should also be aware that payments by direct credit are not processed in
real time. There is at least a one day delay between somebody paying money
into the department's account and notification of the payment via our bank
account statement.

Seems like I could make an argument that this is in the public interest. Is that realistic?

Hi Andrew. It is possible to request for a fee waiver, but in a case like this I think you're better off paying the $14 to receive the documents if you are able. Making the appeal extends the time of the request, and you potentially won't find out the response for another month, and it's likely to be refused.
