Dear OIA_Requests (OT),
I will clarify my request in full because it seems you have denied my request on incorrect grounds.
On 28 May 2018, you suggested that I request:
- records showing how much money was provided to KidsCan by your agency in the 2017/18 Financial Year.
On 29 May 2018 you declined my request (after one day, no less) before I was able to respond and clarify the information requested. I will now make it abundantly clear:
I request under the Official Information Act 1982 records showing how much money was provided to KidsCan by your agency in the 2017/18 (ie current) Financial Year.
In making this request I acknowledge the request I previously made (to which you responded on February 28 2018), in which was released records showing how much money was provided to KidsCan by your agency in the 2016/17 Financial Year.
Yours sincerely,
Sean Richards
