Checklist of subject areas covered in hand-overs between Prime Minister and Acting Prime Minister
Julie Fairey made this Official Information request to Department of the Prime Minister and Cabinet
Department of the Prime Minister and Cabinet did not have the information requested.
From: Julie Fairey
Dear Department of the Prime Minister and Cabinet,
I am requesting a copy of the standard checklist (which may not be referred to as a checklist) used to ensure an effective and comprehensive hand over between the Prime Minister and an Acting Prime Minister, and vice versa, when the Prime Minister is about to go overseas, and when the Prime Minister returns from overseas.
I am after the standing items on this list which are always discussed, even if it is to report that there is nothing to discuss.
Yours faithfully,
Julie Fairey

Department of the Prime Minister and Cabinet

It appears that they do not have the information as it does not exist, i.e. that there is no standard handover structure!
