Dear Mr Degan

You will have seen that the Hon Mark Dreyfus QC MP today announced that Australia will be joining the Open Government Partnership.

In light of this, do you still wish to continue with your FOI request? and if so would you agree to a 30 day extension period for processing the request?

Yours sincerely
