Freedom of Information Logs - FOI Request

We're waiting for Watson Norwood to read recent responses and update the status.

Dear Special Broadcasting Service Corporation,

I am writing to make a request under the Freedom of Information Act for a complete copy of the departments' Freedom of Information (FOI) logs for the period 2013-2023, including any secondary departments controlled by the agency.

I request that this is provided as a document and not a simple redirect to the agency website as I am of the view that your online disclosure logs do not actively reflect your FOI requests that you have received in this period.

I would appreciate it if you could provide me with this information in an electronic format, such as a PDF or spreadsheet, if possible.

If there are any fees associated with fulfilling this request, please let me know in advance so that I can consider my options.

Thank you for your assistance in this matter.

Sincerely,

Watson Norwood

Dear Mr Nowrwood
 
FOI Request - reference 331688
 
I refer to your request for documents under the Freedom of Information Act
1982 (FOI Act)
 
In response to your request, please see enclosed letter and associated
attachments.
 
While a disclosure log does not contain all documents that have been the
subject of an FOI application (in circumstances such as where no document
exists, applications or documents are subject to exemptions, or documents
are released administratively outside of the FOI scheme), we note your
assertion that online disclosure logs do not actively reflect FOI requests
received in the relevant period. As such, we will review our disclosure
log.
 
Please let me know if you have any queries.
 
Regards
Michael Coonan
FOI Coordinator
