Dear Mr Gothe-Snape,

Freedom of Information Request – FOI15/84

Thank you for your email, dated 23 July 2015, to the Department of Finance
(Finance) requesting access to the following under the Freedom of
Information Act 1982 (FOI Act).

... copies of emails sent and received by the Department concerning
Bronwyn Bishop's entitlements between July 13 and July 23 (inclusive),
2015.

In a letter of 14 August 2015, Finance provided you with a section 24AB
notice.  The letter outlined that Finance deemed the scope of your request
too large to process as the work involved would substantially and
unreasonably divert the resources of the agency from its other
operations.   The letter indicated that within 14 days after the day you
received the notice, you were required to either withdraw the request;
make a revised request or indicate that you did not wish to revise the
request. 

As Finance has not received a response from you within the timeframe
indicated, your request is now deemed withdrawn as prescribed by
subsection24AB(7) of the FOI Act. 

Please contact the Finance FOI Team, on the below details, if you have any
queries regarding this request.

Regards, Kira
