The request was refused by Prime Minister.

Dear Prime Minister,

I request a screen shot of each screen on the Minister's phone which shows the applications installed on the phone. This is commonly referred to as the "Home Screen".

I note that the agency can create the document using equipment that is ordinarily available to the agency (the phone in question) by simply taking screenshots as documented in the relevant support articles below, and emailing them to an agency email address:

Please consider processing this request administratively if possible. If this is not possible, please consider this a formal FOI request.

Yours faithfully,

Ben Fairless
