Request for PASC meeting minutes 7-8/12/23
Dear Department of Health
I refer to the Pico Advisory Subcommittee meeting on 7-8 December 2023
http://www.msac.gov.au/internet/msac/pub......
I wish to request the following documents, under the Freedom of Information Act 1982:
1. The minutes of the meetings Pico Advisory Subcommittee meeting on 7-8 December 2023, referencing item 1754 - Patient consultations and surgical procedures for gender affirmation in adults with gender incongruence
2. Any documentation relied upon, or otherwise referenced in these meetings
An agency or minister may impose a charge for providing access to a document under s 29 of the FOI Act. I request that the Department waive any charges applicable to this request, on the basis that the release of these documents would be in the public interest (s 29(5)(b)). The Committee's advice directly impacts the health of almost 25 million Australians, and the release of these documents is therefore in the interest of the entire Australian population.
Yours faithfully,
Eperke Barsony
