While the Department has an oversight role in relation to auDA, it has little involvement in auDA’s day to day operations and would not normally receive nor hold information relating to travel or other administrative issues.
The Department has conducted searches and has found no documents that relate to your request. We are satisfied there are no documents that meet your request.
If you wish to discuss your request further, please contact me on 6271 1219. Otherwise, we consider the request closed.
