Report(s) provided under REV/17362 “Assessment of Revenue NSW Debt Management System”
Dear NSW Office of State Revenue,
I make an informal request for a digital copy of the final report furnished by Ernst & Young to NSW Revenue under contract “REV/17362 Assessment of Revenue NSW Debt Management System”, with any confidential information removed.
This contract ran to 31 July 2023, so should be all wrapped up by now. I would be grateful for a little peek under the hood of your system to see that it is the well-oiled, professional, transparent, legally-compliant and functional machine I’m sure it is. I’m sure the review was just confirming that it’s in tip-top form.
I hope you can find it in your generous heart to process this request (hint: search the intranet for any PDFs with that title, 30 seconds tops) without charge.
Yours faithfully,
Alexander Gross

Dear Mr Gross,
Thank you for your patience with this request.
We are unable to process your request as an informal application under section 8 of the GIPA Act.
This is because the report contains details and recommendations that will inform future procurement activity including assessment of current and future functional and non-functional requirements.
We would therefore need to carefully review the materials and balance the public interests before release.
If you would like to request this information, please submit a formal access application.
Details about how to do so can be found on our website at: https://www.nsw.gov.au/departments-and-a....

Dear GIPA-DCS,
Would reducing the scope of the request to just the executive summary eliminate the commercially sensitive elements? I am very eager to learn about how legally compliant and effective your systems are - because they are right?
Yours sincerely,
Alexander Gross
Dear Mr Gross,
We appreciate you willing to reduce the scope.
However, the advice is the same in that you still need to lodge a formal request due to the reasons we outlined.
