Dear Department of Home Affairs,

Please pass this on to the person who conducts Freedom of Information reviews.

I am writing to request an internal review of Department of Home Affairs's handling of my FOI request 'Procedural Instruction A299 Standard operating procedures - Airport - Airport Inspectors'.

The reason I seek a review is that the Procedural Instruction A299 is referred to in Legend, with the notation in Legend that 'This instruction, which is new to the centralised departmental instructions system (CDIS), was issued on 15 February 2012, to note (as above) that arrangements for its content to be published have not yet been finalised.'

Given the instruction was issued on 15 February 2012, I am keen for further exploration of whether this Instruction exists and has, for example, been filed in another database or file storage system. I thus respectfully request examination of sources beyond TRIM and Legend on this question as part of this FOI request.

A full history of my FOI request and all correspondence is available on the Internet at this address: https://www.righttoknow.org.au/request/p...

Yours faithfully,

Louise Boon-Kuo
