Subject: Right to Information request - Queensland Magistrates Performing
Extradition Functions

Dear Queensland Public Records Review Committee,

I act for Talalelei Pauga a person the subject of an extradition request
pursuant to the Extradition Act 1988.

Please note that section 45B Of the Extradition Act provides:

“Magistrates and Federal Circuit Court Judges--personal capacity

(1) A function or power conferred on a magistrate or eligible Federal
Circuit Court Judge by this Act is conferred on the magistrate or Judge:

(a) in a personal capacity; and

(b) not as a court or a member of a court.”

In the case of magistrates, this occurs under an arrangement between the
Governor General and the Governor of the State.

Please see attached Gazette containing the arrangements in question.

Can you please advise who keeps the records of Queensland Magistrates
performing those functions.

Do you regard them as public records?

I thank you in advance for your assistance.

Yours faithfully,

Greg Finlayson
