Dear JP

The Digital Transformation Agency (DTA) acknowledges receipt of your Freedom of Information (FOI) request made on 15 October 2022 for:

I wish to inform you that your request contains information relating to third parties. As a result, DTA is required to consult.

Notice of Consultation

Your request covers a document relating to the business, commercial or financial affairs of an organization. Accordingly, DTA is required to consult with the organisation concerned before making a decision on the release of this document.

Section 27 of the FOI Act provides that if a request is made to an agency for access to a document containing business information organisation, and it appears to the agency that the organization might reasonably wish to make a contention that the document is exempt under section 47 (trade secrets etc), or section 47G (business information) of the FOI Act, then the agency must not decide to give access to the document unless the organisation concerned is given a reasonable opportunity to make submissions in support of their contention, if it is reasonably practicable to do so.

The DTA will take into account any comments we receive from the organisation. However, the final decision on whether to grant access to the document requested rests with DTA.

Extension of time to process the request
