Dear Sir/Madam,

OUR REF:  22/23-41 – RTI ACCESS APPLICATION

I refer to your Right to Information request for access to documents
relating to donations to Queensland’s Department of Education for the
International Students Science Fair.

Your application was not compliant with the requirements set out in
[1]section 24 of the RTI Act.  I wrote to you on 5 April 2023 to advise
you that your application was non-compliant, and provided you with advice
on how to make your application compliant.

DECISION

The University has not received a response to the aforementioned
correspondence dated 5 April 2023, and your application remains
non-compliant.  Pursuant to [2]section 33(6) of the RTI Act, I have
therefore decided on this date to refuse to deal with your application.

INTERNAL REVIEW

If you are not satisfied with my decision (or any part of it), you may
apply to the University for an internal review under [3]section 80 of the
RTI Act.  An application for an internal review must be made in writing,
and any such application must be lodged within 20 business days of the
date of this decision.  Please refer to the University’s [4]Applications
for Review of Decisions webpage for more information.

EXTERNAL REVIEW

If you are not satisfied with the outcome of the internal review, or if
you wish to proceed directly to an external review, you may apply in
writing to the Office of the Information Commissioner (OIC) for an
external review of the decision under [5]section 85 of the RTI Act.  It is
not necessary to have an internal review before applying for an external
review.

Any application for external review must be made in writing to the OIC
within 20 business days of the date of this decision or the date of the
internal review decision (whichever is later).  Please refer to the OIC’s
[6]Apply for external review webpage for more information.

Please don’t hesitate to contact me on (07) 3443 1148 or via email to
[7][UQ request email] if you have any queries or require any further
information.

Yours sincerely,

Justin Rofe
