The FOI Contact Officer

Department of Veterans' Affairs

Extension of time request under s 15AB

Thank you for your correspondence of 23 May 2016, in which you requested
an extension of time for the Department of Veterans' Affairs (DVA) to
process Mr Mark Toogood’s request, received 6 June 2016, under the Freedom
of Information Act 1982 (Cth) (the FOI Act).

You have sought an extension on the basis that the current processing
period is insufficient to deal adequately with the request, because it is
voluminous or complex.

Decision

As a delegate of the Information Commissioner, I am authorised to make
decisions on requests for extensions of time under s 15AB of the FOI Act.

I have decided to grant the DVA an extension of time under s 15AB (2) of
the FOI Act to 6 June 2016. In coming to this decision I have considered
factors including your advice that:

·                Compiling material relevant to the request is time
consuming and requires the assistance of DVA’s internal ICT area.

I am satisfied with the DVA’s proposal to manage this request.

By granting an extension of time it is anticipated that the DVA will
provide a well-reasoned and better managed decision.

Mr Toogood will be notified of the OAIC’s decision.

Contact

If you have any questions about this email, please contact me on 02 9284
9731 or via email [1][email address]. In all correspondence
please include the OAIC reference number above.

Yours sincerely
