Dear Department of Finance,
I write to request, pursuant to the Freedom of Information Act ("the FOI Act") any and all documents held by the Department of Finance ("the Department") concerning the recent relocation of the electorate office of Adam Bandt MP ("the Member"). Such documentation could include, but may not be limited to:
- Correspondence held by the Department between the Member, the Department and the Special Minister of State and any other department concerning the justification or reasoning for the relocation;
- Quotations, invoices or other like financial documents relating to work performed in the process of the relocation (eg. moving expenses, installation of new infrastructure, advertising the relocation to the Member's constituents etc); and
- Copies of the leases held by the Department in relation to the properties of 280 King Street and 296 Brunswick Street.
To the extent that any documents found in the Department's possession are considered to be exempt from disclosure the FOI Act, a description of the document and the reason for its exemption should be disclosed to me without affecting the disclosure of other documents that may fall under this request.
Yours faithfully,
Jason Radcliffe

Dear FOI Requests,
The request relates to any documents held by the Department in relation to the relocation of the office of Adam Bandt MP from 280 King Street to 296 Brunswick Street, irrespective of the date of the document.
My understanding is the move was completed earlier this year, however I would expect that documentation would exist earlier than this.
Yours sincerely,
Jason Radcliffe

Dear FOI Requests,
In accordance with your correspondence dated 7 April 2015, I would like to revise my request.
Please substitute the previous request for information with the following:
- Correspondence held by the Department between the Member, the
Department and the Special Minister of State and any other
department concerning the justification or reasoning for the
relocation;
- Copies of the leases held by the Department in relation to the
properties of 280 King Street and 296 Brunswick Street.
For the avoidance of doubt, the request has been revised to exclude the second point as originally requested.
Yours sincerely,
Jason Radcliffe
