FOI/PMO/2017/010

Dear Mr Guzzardi

Thank you for your email dated 9 March 2017, in which you made a request
to the Prime Minister under the Freedom of Information Act 1982 (the FOI
Act) in the following terms:

‘I would like to see and read ALL of the Turnbull's "Masses of Evidence"
documents related to job creation post FWC Penalty rates decision’.

Handling of request

The Department of the Prime Minister and Cabinet (the Department) provides
administrative support to the Prime Minister in relation to Freedom of
Information (FOI) requests made to him. I am writing to advise you of
further information on the processing of your request to the Prime
Minister, set out below.

Timeframe for receiving your decision

Your request was received on 9 March 2017 and the 30 day statutory period
for processing your request commenced from the day after that date. You
should therefore expect a decision from us by Monday 10 April 2017. The
period of 30 days may be extended in certain circumstances. We will advise
you if there is any extension of time.

Charges

Agencies and Ministers may decide that an applicant is liable to pay a
charge in respect of a request for access to documents. If the
decision-maker in the Prime Minister’s Office (PMO) decides that you are
liable to pay a charge, we will send you a preliminary assessment of the
charge as soon as possible.

Publication of documents

Please note that information released under the FOI Act may later be
published online on our disclosure log at
[1]http://www.dpmc.gov.au/pmc/accountabilit...,
subject to certain exceptions. If you think you might wish to raise any
objections to the publication of any of the information which may be
released to you please contact us by email at
[2][DPMC request email]<mailto:[DPMC request email]>. If you do wish to object to the
publication of information, you would need to provide supporting reasons.

Exclusion of officers’ names and contact details

It is the Department’s policy to withhold any person’s signature, the
names and contact details of officers not in the Senior Executive Service
(SES) as well as the mobile or direct numbers of SES officers within the
Department and other agencies contained within documents that fall within
scope of the request. Similarly, it is the PMO’s policy to withhold
signatures, the names and contact details of PMO staff at a level below
Chief of Staff. If you require this information please let us know at
[3][DPMC request email] so the decision-maker may consider; otherwise we will
take it that you agree to that information being excluded from the scope
of your request.

We will write again when the Department has more information.  Further
information on FOI processing can be found at the website of the Office of
the Australian Information Commissioner at

Yours sincerely
