Request for email document
Dear Australian Public Service Commission,
I refer to the following articles:
http://www.canberratimes.com.au/national...
https://www.crikey.com.au/2017/10/24/lib...
https://www.themandarin.com.au/85236-thr...
http://www.canberratimes.com.au/national...
which tend to suggest that the Public Service Commissioner has breached a range of obligations imposed on him by the Public Service Act and the Public Governance, Performance and Accountability Act.
I refer to a question posed of the APSC by the Finance and Public Administration Senate Committee on 26 February 2018 which the Public Service Commissioner took on notice:
https://www.aph.gov.au/api/qon/downloade...
where the Senate Committee requested that the Public Service Commissioner provide to the Senate, email correspondence between the Public Service Commissioner and the Institute of Public Affairs (IPA) over the past eighteen months. In response to that request, the APSC/IPA identified one relevant email as being sent/received on 24/10/2017 with the subject "PR for IPA".
Under the FOI Act, I request a copy of that document.
I give consent for the personal information of anyone who's not a public servant a member of parliament to be redacted from the relevant document so no third party consultation should be necessary.
Noting that the Public Service Commissioner is a former senior staffer and current member of the IPA, that the IPA's policy and lobbying agenda is anti public servant and that the Public Service Commissioner has a history of using Commonwealth resources to support and advance the political agenda of the IPA, it is clearly in the public interest that access be provided to the document identified.
In processing this request, I remind APSC staff of the obligations imposed on them by the Public Service Act.
Thank you.

Dear FOI,
Thanks for your reply. I note your advice that:
"The Commission’s policy is to exclude the personal details of the
Commission’s or APSC officers; such as names, signatures, direct phone and
mobile numbers, where contained in documents that fall within the scope of
an FOI request, unless you specifically request access to such details."
As stated, I'm willing for the personal information of anyone who's not a public servant a member or a member of parliament to be redacted from the relevant documents. It's clearly in the public interest however, to identify any public servant or MP who thinks it appropriate to use Commonwealth resources to engage in correspondence with the IPA (the propagandist/lobbyist arm of the Liberal Party) on matters such as "PR for IPA". In other words, I specifically request access to such details.

Dear G Coles
Thank you for your email below relating to your FOI request.
You will recall when the Commission wrote to you on 26 April 2018 acknowledging receipt of your request, we advised that there are times when an FOI statutory time frame may be extended.
Pursuant to section 27A of the FOI Act, as your request captures documents that contain personal information of third parties, the Commission is required to consult with relevant individuals before making a decision on release of documents. The consultation mechanism under section 27A applies when we believe the individuals may wish to contend that the requested documents, or parts of the requested documents are exempt for reasons of personal privacy.
Section 15(6) of the FOI Act provides that the timeframe for processing your FOI request is extended by a further period of 30 days to allow for such consultation. As such, the statutory time frame for you to receive your decision falls on 23 June 2018.
The Commission confirms that while the decision-maker will take into account any submissions received from consulted individuals, the final decision to grant access rests with the decision-maker.
Should you have any questions in relation to the processing of your request, please contact the FOI team by reply email.

Dear FOI,
Your email of 28 May 2018 states:
“You will recall when the Commission wrote to you on 26 April 2018 acknowledging receipt of your request, we advised that there are times when an FOI statutory time frame may be extended.
Pursuant to section 27A of the FOI Act, as your request captures documents that contain personal information of third parties, the Commission is required to consult with relevant individuals before making a decision on release of documents. The consultation mechanism under section 27A applies when we believe the individuals may wish to contend that the requested documents, or parts of the requested documents are exempt for reasons of personal privacy.”
In response, you will recall that my request of 24 April 2018 stated:
“I give consent for the personal information of anyone who's not a public servant a member of parliament to be redacted from the relevant document so no third party consultation should be necessary.”
I also understand from media reports that the email at issue was sent by John Lloyd to his boss at the Institute of Public Affairs, John Roskam. Also, that there are no other persons mentioned in the email.
So why are you now consulting when I’ve given consent for John Roskam’s personal information to be redacted?
Also, given the decision was due last week, the effect of s.15AC of the FOI Act is that John Lloyd has personally refused to give access to the document and that your decision to consult under s.27A (made days after the due date of my request) was made unlawfully.
Unless the APSC: i) provides access to the email document the subject of my request (again, I’m happy for you to redact John Roskam’s details); and/ or ii) provides substantive information indicating that anything I’ve set out above is incorrect – I intend to seek IC review of John Lloyd’s access refusal decision by the end of the week.

There was a technical issue which prevented responses from appearing on the site - If a response isn't received in a few hours, we have asked the APSC to re-send their original response to the Right to Know email address.
