Dear Ms Wolf
Re: Your Freedom of Information request
I am writing to inform you that I have been appointed as the authorised
decision maker for your FOI request, seeking access to:
CCTV footage or body worn cameras from any premises either run by or
otherwise provided to or managed under contract on behalf of the
Department of Immigration and Border Protection (DIBP) or any other
government department that reports to or is otherwise related to DIBP on
Nauru from 17 to 20 July, 2013.
As part of the department’s FOI service standard, I will update you every
14 days regarding the progress of your request, however please do not
hesitate to contact me if you have any questions.
The current due date for your request under the FOI Act is Tuesday, 22
April 2014.
Due to the number of requests currently being processed by our office, the
fact that this matter was only allocated to me today and the upcoming
public holidays, it is unlikely that I will be able to finalise your
request by the original due date.
I therefore seek your agreement (under s.15AA of the FOI Act) to extend
the timeframe for the processing of your request by 30 days. This would
extend the due date for your request to Thursday, 22 May 2014.
Please advise by close of business Friday, 11 April 2014 whether you agree
to this request for an extension of time.
Yours sincerely
Marianne Nolte-Crimp

Nauru from 17 to 20 July, 2013.
The current due date for your FOI request is Tuesday, 22 April 2014.
The purpose of this email is to advise you (as required under s.24AB of
the FOI Act) that I consider a 'practical refusal reason' exists under
s.24AA of the Freedom of Information Act 1982 (FOI Act) in relation to
your request. I have set out my reasons in the attached notice.
The FOI Act requires that you respond to this notice before the end of the
consultation period, which is close of business Australian Eastern
Standard Time (AEST) Friday, 25 April 2014. However as this is a public
holiday, the Acts Interpretation Act 1901 provides that the latest date
you may respond is the next working day, which is Monday, 28 April 2014.
As advised in the notice, you may reply to me at this email address
([1][email address]).
